| Imagine a 600-mile wilderness expedition by ski and canoe, an accomplishment that will profoundly change your life. During this semester the romance of a ski track and the song of a paddle, combined with the stroke of your pen, will provide the education of your dreams.
The New Hampshire-Vermont Semester Program will begin at our Base Camp in Marlow, NH with students and teachers working together to prepare for the expedition. Students will sew a tent that will be their home on the trail, make mukluks, dehydrate meat and vegetables, learn and practice back country sking techniques, and study navigation, nutrition, meteorology and other expedition related topics. Then the journey begins: three hundred miles on the Catamount Trail from Southern Vermont to the Canadian border! Click here to read more... |
Imagine hands on immersion into the cultural, economic and social lives of two contrasting parts of the world, New England in the Northern Hemisphere and the Republic of Ecuador in the Southern Hemisphere. Through social interaction with the different cultures, paddling Amazonian rivers, trekking in the jungle and exploring snow capped volcanoes you will develop a sense of place and purpose as an individual within the world.
At Kroka's Farm Base Camp in Marlow, NH we will immerse ourselves in the past and present life of the Appalachian Mountains. Working on local farms we will harvest the gifts of the summer.
We will make backpacks, knives, and study Spanish in preparation for our southern migration. By early October, a strong and close knit community will arrive in the heart of the Andes, at our Base Camp on Hacienda Palugo, outside the city of Quito. Click here to read more... |
