I used to think that money was important. It was amazing to see how happy the people were who lived in the campo. They may have been poor by American Standards, but they were so rich in life experience.

This was the best experience of my life. I would recommend it to anyone. I will keep these memories with me forever. The feelings I experienced are probably the hardest thing to describe or explain to anyone. I thoroughly enjoyed the trip.

I felt inspired by this experience. Being part of the DREAM Project has furthered my desire to study medicine and to fufill my long term goal of being able to work with other nations to improve health care opportunities worldwide.

My views about the world have changed. I have come to the conclusion that the foundation of every culture is education, and during the DREAM trip, it struck me how different our educational system is to theirs. I am now considering becoming a teacher.

The DREAM trip made me realize what is physical labor and hard work. Before the trip, to me, hard work was a grueling lacrosse practice or an endless night of homework. Now, I see that to others, hard work is surviving day to day. I no longer want to live for the future..I want to live for the present.

I was appreciative of the physical labor put forth by South Burlington students. Despite the taxing moments, our students preserved. I am also appreciative of the Dominicans hospitality and kindness.
