Go Behind the Scenes with Rustic Pathways Students
The main reason to travel with Rustic is to have a completely transformative experience; it will change the way you look at the world and the way you interact with people on a daily basis. I loved my program and the people that I met so much. It made me much more appreciative of the small things that I had at home like access to drinkable water. It also made me grow personally as I became more independent and more unafraid to be myself.

From beginning to end, the experience was professional, efficient, exciting and fulfilling. Having never traveled such a distance before, Lark might have had justifiable anxiety. However, the information Rustic provided along with the support parents received, allayed any fears we might have had.
