The school was founded in 1997.
Our goal was to take a creative approach to learning by combining
aspects of a language school, adventure travel, and art workshop
to create an unforgettable travel experience. To date we have
hosted students from all across the United States, Canada, France,
Germany, England, Holland, Iceland, French West Indies, Italy,
and Australia. The school's innovative programs have been featured
in guidebooks, magazines, and newspapers from the U.S.A. to Hong
Kong.
"Traveling is one of
the best learning experiences a person can have, and it is more
enjoyable when you have someone that can answer your questions
and show you things that you would have otherwise missed. I
have had some of the most incredible times of my life here in
Costa Rica…from swimming with a whale shark to watching
a simultaneous moonset and sunrise from the top of Mt. Chirripo.
We (the staff) love teaching students about Costa Rica and one
of the best parts of the job is watching students make their
own life-long memories."
- Co-founder
of the school
"Before I left
for Costa Rica I had absolutely no idea what to expect and I
definitely had no clue that the experience that I'd have would
completely change some of the outlooks I had about my life.
I find it amazing that you've created a place to give people
this opportunity…incredible people from all over the world
who together can share these experiences. You know, here and
there everyone has an experience that they'll never forget,
the so-called "time of my life", but I never believed
you could have that for an entire month. Needless to say, it
was surely the most incredible (and fastest) month ever."
