Great trip!
by: Ethan Smith - Guam (USA)Program: Japan: Tokyo Fusion with Rustic PathwaysThis trip was a good mix of volunteering and exploring. I made amazing friends and really felt like I was making a difference. I didn’t think I would like it but it totally exceeded my expectations. Jared was the best trip leader.

An incredible couple of weeks.!
