The art of traveling

Travel observantly...
   ... take the time to absorb the beauty of a cathedral.

Travel humbly...
  ... visit people and places with reverence and respect for their traditions.

Travel with thoughtfulness...
   ... think about the beauty before you and the history behind you.

Travel with imagination...
   ... put yourself in the place of those who left these treasures.

Travel courteously...
   ... consideration for your fellow travelers and your hosts will smooth the way
    through the most difficult times.

Travel with flexibility and a positive attitude...
   ... even when things don't go as planned.

Travel with an open mind...
   ... leave your prejudices at home.

Travel with the spirit of a world citizen...
   ... you will discover that people are much the same the world over.

Drinkable water & Ecofiltro

Collegiate students will be working in Antigua Guatemala with Ecofiltro
Water for Guatemalans



Ninety percent of rivers and streams in Guatemala are contaminated. Wells, springs, tap water — it's not a good water source unless it's clean. The best way to make water filtration a sustainable solution, and not just a charitable gift, is to help people secure filters for the rest of their lives.
