Consulting

We personally meet with our student travelers to equip them, in coordination with other sponsoring partners, for maximizing the benefits of their upcoming journey.  This includes introducing them to information on:

  • The history and culture of the place they about to visit;
  • Important customs and social practices that they need to be aware of during their stay;
  • Basic local language and communication terms that will be useful in their interactions;
  • Questions and concerns they may have as they anticipate the journey.

Upon return, we assist in the important process of debriefing the journey: reflecting on their experiences; articulating what they saw and heard and learned about both the larger world and themselves; and sorting through how they will build upon the experience as they go forward in their education and their future vocational lives. Then, we will provide a public platform for the traveler to report on their journey and its experiential  highlights, and to share what it meant, and will mean, for them.
