Inspiring, motivating and a must do
by: Tia Wackerhagen - United StatesProgram: Nutrition & Natural Medicine in PeruI have never been to South America before but knew I wanted to stay for a solid period of time to understand the culture. I am a doctoral student wanting to augment my learning with experiences from other cultures regarding holistic health and indigenous medicine. This program provided me with all I was hoping: a well put together program that consisted of day long learning sessions for the first two weeks, then immersion into an internship tailored to me. Accommodations were amazing, I always f...
Thank you for the review, Tia! It was such a pleasure having you with us in Peru! :)
Living in the Sacred Valley for 4 months changed my life!!
by: Macey Richardson - United StatesProgram: Internship in the Sacred Valley, Peru!My best friend and I got the amazing opportunity to intern in Peru for 4 months in 2019 through Linguistic Horizons. The usual internship is 2 weeks studying nutrition and natural medicine. We however, asked if we could study nursing specifically and stay for 16 weeks instead. Nicole worked with us to fully customize our time in the Sacred Valley. When we asked to change locations for more exposure to different kinds of medicine, Nicole was prompt to assist. We were able to work in a local natur...
Thank you so much for the review, Macey! I can't believe it's been 6 years already! I'm so glad you had a good experience with us :) It is true that we often have more participants in our 2 week Nutrition and Natural Medicine program. However, we als...
I left a part of me in Peru ?
by: Michaella Hajjar - United StatesProgram: Nutrition & Natural Medicine in PeruUpon my arrival to Peru to study nutrition & natural medicine in a summer abroad program, I was already expecting a life changing experience. From Cusco, to Macchu picchu, to urubamba; the largest town in the Sacred Valley of the Incas. Aside from the beautiful mountainous scenery, ancient history, teachers, guides, and the amazing women I get to participate in this program with, I was deeply touched by the hard working people, innocent children, and abundant packs of stray animals that reside i...
Thank you for your review, Michaella! <3

What inspired you to travel abroad?
I have always been passionate about education, foreign languages, and travel. After several years of brainstorming, I landed on the idea to start Linguistic Horizons. Having studied abroad a few times, I saw a need for true foreign language immersion in study abroad programs. I took the best aspects of my experiences as a student to form new and different programs.

What inspired you to travel abroad?
Since I was a little girl, I knew that I wanted to open my mind and travel. I wanted to experience new things and places, either for tourism, education, work, or a combination of all three! It was, and still is, a goal that has been in my mind since I can remember. My parents traveled a lot because of their jobs and would always talk to me about how interesting and stimulating it was to get out of their comfort zone and experience cultures and places different from our own. They relayed the importance of learning other languages and being able to connect to people through languages. Thanks to them, I started learning English and became fluent at 18.
