Study Abroad Programs A World Away Travels in conjuntion with the Bear River Institute and Utah State have combined resources to create an opportunity which we are particulary proud of. These programs range in length from 21 to 46 days and are taking students to some of the most interesting an insightful places on the planet. With programs in Nepal and Peru we are under way with what we feel is an opportunity for students to view their world and themselves in a whole new light. From village homestays in Nepal to tours of the Amazon in Peru we feel these are experiences that can engage and inspire students to a broader level of understanding of their world and their opportunities in it.

	Our academic program in Peru provides a diverse and rigorous immersion into Peruvian culture. Every aspect of traveling abroad is multi-dimensional and incorporates a broad spectrum of disciplines and experiences. Our program emphasizes this by focusing on ecology, history, geology, biology, anthropology, archaeology and economics. The program begins with an intensive study of the Spanish language, history and contemporary culture of the Cusco region while living with a host family. The home stay provides a unique opportunity to gain insights to their local culture, and as importantly, close friendships with our wonderful host families. This is often the most rewarding part of the study abroad experience. We have a variety of enthusiastic Spanish teachers enabling students with different backgrounds in the Spanish language to remain challenged by the classes. We also touch on the basics of Quechua, the language indigenous to the Peruvian Andes. The staggering ecological diversity of Peru, ranging from the tropical rainforests of the Amazon to the glacial mountains of the Andes, has spawned equally contrasting and fascinating variations. During their travels students will interact with people throughout this broad cultural spectrum, from the rainforests of the Manu Bio Reserve in the Amazon to the mountainous highlands leading to Machu Picchu. The development of this program has been inspiring, and we are eager to share our research with students looking to broaden their horizons and experience an entirely different world.
