Women for Environmental Action Monteverde, Costa Rica

Hola! My name is Danielle and I'm very excited to be a leader of the Global Discovery Program in Monteverde. I'm originally from New Hampshire but have spent a lot of time abroad both as a student and a teacher. I'm looking forward to another summer with CIEE and especially to being a part of the amazing adventure that these students are embarking on. Thank you for following our blog. I hope you will enjoy being a part of the journey!
