(Travel for Reflection, Empowerment, Kinship & Sustainability)

TREKS (Travel for Reflection, Empowerment, Kinship & Sustainability) is founded on the principle that tremendous growth takes place when people work together for a common good. TREKS participants travel with us to see themselves change by working to make a positive influence in the world. An experience of true immersion to the lifestyle of the locals: living, working, sharing with them and eventually seeing the world as they see it... which allows participants to put into action the potential that has been waiting to manifest.
