Outdoor ed is a great experience that truly gives me a new perspective.

Traveling to a different place, seeing different things and disconnecting from online technology is the refresher that we all need. When it’s just me and my group in the vast nature, I become more grateful for everything — for the thrilling experience of the wilderness and for the comfort of home. I have so many special memories from my outdoor ed trips. I have gotten to know everyone in my group better while hiking, cooking and more, which helps our grade feel more connected to one another. The views I have seen are also incredible; there are gorgeous sunsets, meadows and amazing wildlife. I love how outdoor ed provides us a break from our usual routine, allowing us time and space to open up our mind.
