- 2008-2009: Argentina (skiing/snowboarding) - Greece (rock climbing)
- 2009-2010: Fiji (surfing) - Italy, Sardinia (mountaineering, rock climbing)
* All destinations subject to change. All changes will be posted at www.AGExplore.org.
AGE, based in Ashland, Oregon, in the beautiful Siskiyou Mountains, spends eight weeks of each semester traveling in a foreign country. Their trips are designed to allow students the opportunity to both familiarize themselves with and participate in the local community and culture. Homestays, community service projects, school visitations, and cultural events are incorporated into each semester's curriculum and itinerary.
Check out the AGE website for highlights from the trip and for more information about upcoming climbing, skiing, kayaking, biking, and surfing semesters.
