Loved everything about Belize

I loved everything that Belize had to offer. The community, island, and connections that you make all resonate with you. It's a once in a lifetime experience you will surely never forget. I'd do it over and over again.

More than I could've learned in class

This trip exposed me to more than I ever could have learned in a classroom. I inevitably met friends I'll have for the rest of my life, and learned so much about myself in the time I was here. I realized how important conservation is for not only animals/marine life, but also human civilization.

Expanded my knowledge

I loved the Wildlife Belize program and how it expended my knowledge of wildlife and made me want to pursue my career in wildlife. This course was so much fun and you meet amazing people. Our guide made the experience so much better and brought so much knowledge.
