Testimonials
Canaan
My biggest takeaway was realizing that I have the agency to do little things that can make positive changes in my life... I have become a more self-aware and compassionate person through the lessons I learned.
Elijah
I have had time to reflect and do things that truly resonate with my inner self. Back home, I would be too busy trying to survive through my day to day and would feel like I was drowning.
Tatyana
I have a deeper understanding of my mental and emotional state. I now know how to cope and regulate my emotionality and can attempt openly and vulnerably to communicate.
Mattison
Costa Rica allowed me to give up distractions and be with myself when I wanted to. I’ve learned to stay in the present rather than build up alternate realities when I am bored.

The Pathfinder staff goes above and beyond their administrative roles to create deeply personal relationships with participants. Each person I interacted with made a point to get to know me, and I believe that the deeper understanding created was integral to my feeling of belonging. It provided me with a strong support system on top of the local mentor connection and my host family.
