August 01, 2025by: Yusuf MaguireProgram: CIEE HS Summer Abroad: Arabic Language & Culture in Rabat
To me this program can only be described in 3 words. Absolutely life changing. This is actually my second time doing this exact program, I missed it so much the first time that I needed to come back. Now after my second year I feel the same way again. This program is perfect in every single way.
Memories to cherish
September 16, 2024by: Niki T.Program: CIEE HS Summer Abroad: Arabic Language & Culture in Rabat
I would definitely recommend CIEE Global Navigator High School Summer Abroad to a friend or a peer because this program has allowed me to experience a different country's culture and has given me life long memories that I will cherish. The most memorable experience I had on the program was our weekend trip to Marakesh and when we went to the Agafey Desert
The trip of a lifetime— immersive and unfiltered!
December 16, 2021by: Jennifer W - United StatesProgram: Senegal: Youth Leadership, Arts, & Culture (Summer)
The Where There Be Dragons summer program in Senegal was the opportunity of a lifetime to really experience another culture with no filters. Students were really allowed to interact and BE in the culture, rather than just looking at it or learning about it from afar. I'll never forget sitting on a mat under the stars with my homestay family, learning simple words in Pulaar, eating grilled corn, looking at a sky full of thousands of stars, and the last evening with them when we danced late into the night under the full moon.



Very nice
April 14, 2017by: Helene - DenmarkProgram: Under 18 Volunteering - High School Volunteer Abroad (HSVA)
I did enjoy the program very much. I really like the personal development and the safety and care that people showed me. Regarding the accommodation, the family was very friendly and open, but the house itself was a bit dirty. The project I was volunteering at was the school. The kids was very engaging and the teachers was very helpful. I would have wished I was told that they had exams and where vacating the two weeks i was there, so I could have prepared myself for the activities instead of education. The different sightseeing i did during my stay was very interesting and educational, which I am very happy about. I also like the fact that I could decide for myself what I wanted to see or not. You should be prepared to pay for attractions and some food plus water yourself. My total experience has been very great! I think for me, it was very important for me to have some other volunteers around me. In my case there were no one other than me to attend the high school special but one girl, who attended the healthcare project.

It was such a great experience to spend our time here, doing something little, but good. I hope that me and my sister have done every of these children a little happier. Of course not everything here was amazing, but we understand it, cuz life here is absolutely different than our life in Russia. So, we're so excited about this program, we also will help these children in future, will try to send them different things that they need most and of course will try to come back in the future.
