Volunteer Programs in Calcutta, India

Traveling with Carpe Diem challenged the ideas I had formed about myself in high school. Never quite excelling in the classroom environment and not knowing how to take advantage of school resources, I thought I was just born a “bad student.” Approaching education from an experiential model made me realize, I just didn’t know myself and my own needs. Carpe Diem’s Educators are so compassionate and supportive and help their students excel in their own ways. The program is immersive and set up in a way that gives you a wide variety of experiences, so everyone can experience a range of challenges and strengths.

Being here across de globe, doing what I love the most, was by far the best experience of my life. Life support truly brought out a best part of me, and I am forever grateful for this opportunity. Hope I made some lives better! I think everyone should have an experience like this.. There is nothing like getting out of our comfort zone, exploring new places, meeting new people.... Discovering ourselves!! If you are reading this and you're still not sure about it.. just don't think twice and book it. Pura Vida, Matilde Carvalho, Portugal
