TELL ME MORE ABOUT OUR TIME AT FRIENDSHIP VILLAGE:

Working with the Center for Sustainable Development Studies, we spend four days at Friendship Village, a residental health and education center for children living with the effects of the dioxin "Agent Orange." During our time there, we focus on international solidarity, reconciliation, and efforts to heal the pains of war. Assisting students in special education classes, playing sports and games with children and veterans, and helping in the center’s vegetable garden are some of the ways our group lends a hand. Bookending our time here, we share in a cultural exchange night full of music, dancing, and recognition.  

TELL ME MORE ABOUT TREKKING IN SAPA:

After our time in Friendship Village, we board an overnight train to Sapa. Whirling past velvety green mountains, colorful rice terraces, and charming alpine towns, we set out on foot for an epic day hike and spend the night exchanging stories with the hill tribes such as the Hmong, Tay, and Dao. 

TELL ME MORE ABOUT HA LONG BAY:

Designated as a UNESCO Heritage Site in 1994, Ha Long Bay swims in ethereal beauty. Home to striking emerald waters, towering limestone pillars and islets, Ha Long Bay is the perfect place to enjoy Vietnam's natural beauty. While there, we celebrate our time in Vietnam with a kayak past the floating houses of fishermen and board a boat to the dreamy private islet, Freedom Island.
