My Travel Story

Hi everyone! My name is Haleigh and I am a senior this year at Maryville College. I have been accepted into the Costa Rica Study Abroad Program and I am so excited to spend 10 days in this beautiful country. Costa Rica is one of the five blue zones in the world, and I will get to learn more about their ways of life and how they live to be 100 years old! This opportunity will give me valuable experience for my career, as i will also be learning about the culture and values of Costa Rica's people and their approaches to human health & longevity, sustainable living and wellness. As excited as I am for this- it is pricy. Which is why I am fundraising because I could not do this on my own. If you are able to donate, anything helps. But if not, a prayer would be appreciated as I am stepping out of my comfort zone with this. I believe this will encourage me to gain independence & confidence in my knowledge and allow me to excel in my career. Thank you for reading
