Thanks for the checking out the blog for this Global Leadership Adventures program!
Here are a few things to know and expect:
- Blog posts are written by onsite program staff and/or students and sent to our Headquarters team who will post the blog on this page.
- We typically receive 2-3 blog updates per week from each program, so please don’t be alarmed if you don’t see a blog post every day – that’s totally normal.
- Blog updates received late in the evening or overnight will be posted the following day.
- Blog updates received on weekends may not be posted until Monday.
- Due to many factors such as internet accessibility, program staff aren’t always able to send photos, so some blog posts may contain text only.
Thank you for your patience and understanding, and we hope you enjoy following along on these unforgettable adventures.

BLOG POST FOR JULY 16
Today is day 2 of the gla trip in Costa Rica.
Tyler and Teagan were the leaders of the day for today. This morning at 8 we had a nice and healthy breakfast with omelettes and fruit, leading to the peace retreat and swim test.
Lunch came around at 12 with another healthy meal of chicken and rice with potatoes, before our surf trip at 1:30. We drove to the beach where we had our first surf lesson of the trip. Everyone found their rhythm and had good moments catching waves. After that, we kicked back and relaxed at the beach.
When we got back around 5 we all had free time to swim in the pool and relax. Finishing off the day with our dinner of beef stew and rice with plantain chip, and mentor circle, coming up with community rules created by the group. By the end of the day everyone enjoyed their time and picked up a thing or two from surfing lessons.
