Chile
Hometown: Pittsburgh, PA

Have you ever been to Chile?  

While I enjoy traveling, learning about other cultures and speaking other languages, I have never had the opportunity to visit. 

But now I do! And you do, too.

Even if you're not physically along for the ride, join me and my colleagues as we embark on our journey to Valparaiso, Chile, with many high school students who also share our passion for learning, language and culture. 

Join us as we learn and experience this new place together by checking out our blog and keeping updated with our incredible stories of travel, friendship and fun! 

My name is Janeen Bost and I will be one of the Program Leaders, or PL, for Session 1 to Valparaiso, Chile. "See" you all in a few days! 

 

Here are the links to Youssef and Rachael's blogs, who are alsoProgram Leaders (PL) in Valparaiso, Chile for Session 1. Check out their blogs for more about our experiences!
