During my gap year, I’ll begin with a NOLS program in the Pacific Northwest this fall, where I’ll spend time in the great outdoors doing sea kayaking, mountaineering, and rock climbing. In the spring, I’ll explore Nepal and India with a gap year program organized by Pacific Discovery. This leg of the journey will involve hiking through the Himalayas, volunteering on a farm and at a sloth bear sanctuary, and experiencing cultural treasures like the Taj Mahal.
