For the past 4 years, we\u2019ve had the honor of serving youth from all over the country to make international travel experiences more accessible to them.<\/p>\n
Our intrepid group from Envision Academy recently returned from their trip to Colombia thanks to all of your support!<\/p>\n
Each and every year, the students\u2019 experiences, reflections, and lessons learned exceed our highest expectations, and this group was particularly remarkable.<\/p>\n
They made us realize how much of their stories and perspectives have been lacking in the mainstream travel narrative. They\u2019ve shared so much with us \u2013 an honest and true reflection of all the highs and lows they experienced abroad, and we\u2019re excited to continue to tell their story<\/p>\n
After a long travel day that involved several pieces of lost luggage (which, they never complained about once!), our group started their trip in Bogota on a literal high note \u2013 by taking the teleferico up to the top of Cerro de Monserrate where they took in all the views from Bogota, spotted a rainbow through the trees, and tried a local snack of obleas con arequipe (check out the highlights on FLYTE\u2019s Instagram stories<\/a> to witness their reactions!).<\/p>\n
