Hello,
my name is Nadine and my friend Sam organizes surf and volunteer trips to the tropical country of Ecuador, in South America.
I myself have gone on a trip, and I fell in love. The energy and spirit of the coming together of both cultures (the volunteers and the locals) is amazing. Not to mention I learnt how to surf and also felt good about contributing my time to the local bilingual kindergarten, and watched the smiles light up on the children's faces.. in fact, I enjoyed the trip so much that I decided to make it my goal to help as many other students have the same experience i had.

here's a little about the trips..

The trips are 8 days long, and ALL-INCLUSIVE..
this includes the following:

- daily surf lessons
- volunteering in the local bilingual kindergarten school
- food and accommodations
- transportation to and from the arrive city - Quito, as well as all throughout the trip

Trips available from January 2 - April 3rd 2010.
