"I made some of my best friends during my gap year with AMIGOS. We all connected through our deep love for the outdoors and interest in exploring more of the Nicaraguan landscape. In this photo, we are about to embark on a 15 km hike to the highest point in the entire country. We shared countless numbers of laughs, stories, and facts about our culture. Friendships are the core of being an AMIGO!"

- Sawyer, AMIGOS alum and NYAC Member
