Soak up every moment
July 22, 2024by: Sophie ProcacciniProgram: Active Mexico! Pacific Surf CampI would absolutely recommend this program to future students - it's worth it!! I really appreciated learning about different cultures and trying new foods. I also had a lot of fun practicing Spanish. Soak up every moment because it goes by sooo fast. Do everything you can!
Has a lot to offer
July 22, 2024by: Duncan Van NordenProgram: Active Mexico! Pacific Surf CampI enjoyed the hell out of the rest of the trip! Our Arcos director was great and always answered every question of ours. Really, the best part was just being in Mexico and speaking Spanish. I genuinely suggest considering this program - it has a lot to offer.
Rise to the challenge
