    Overview

    A dive into Spanish language, Guatemalan culture, adventure, and volunteering. Spend two weeks diving into Spanish language study with local teachers, tailored to the level you need. Participate in volunteer projects ranging from conservation and sustainability to building or education. Learn about group living, cooking, mindfulness, and arts through projects with your group at your home base. 

    With almost 20 years of experience working in Guatemala, we’ve created this program to help you gain a new appreciation for Spanish and Guatemalan culture alongside a cohort of peers.

    HIGHLIGHTS:

    • Improve your Spanish as you study in small groups and work with locals on service projects.
    • Learn about sustainability and indigenous rights through service projects and local experts.
    • Try your hand at surfing during our final travel on the coast.
