Ecuador

November Break Trip
10 Days, November 23, 2019 - December 2, 2019

1 / 3

Vermont Academy is offering an incredible trip to Ecuador over Thanksgiving break with a Vermont Academy teacher. It will be a mix of service-learning, fun in the capital city, and soaking in the hot springs as you look up at the Andes mountains! Plus you earn Community Service hours for Vermont Academy.

An immersion into simple living begins as soon as students arrive at the Palugo farm in Ecuador. Palugo is a fourth-generation family farm dedicated to sustainable practices and providing a space for learning directly from the land and its people.
