It was all successful. I had the greatest time ever. The counselors were absolutely great, the camping was enjoyable, and the whole trip was wonderful.

EVERYTHING was successful! I loved every second of my trip to Spain. I loved surfing in Santander the most. I also loved the atmosphere of this trip. Everyone was so positive and wanted to achieve the same things as me.

I think that AAVE does a terrific job of matching trip leaders to the specific trips, and also matching the leaders to each other. It was a largely successful summer because the leaders allowed you to grow as a person.

Everything great, good communication when necessary, fortunately communication was not often necessary. Thanks for the great summer!

Your company management of parental paperwork (ie. staying on top of me with gentle reminders) was excellent. Your organizational skills made me feel comfortable that Emily was in a well controlled, well managed teen program. All possible concerns were addressed up front with clear expectations for us as parents and allowed for clearly established expectations of behaviors/goals with our teenager. She came back more independent, confident and had a better defined sense of who she is as an individual. I would recommend your progrm to others with confidence and look forward to sending her younger sister.

It was wonderful. Amanda tells everyone that it was the best time of her life. She is still in touch with many teens from the trip. As parents we were kept informed and had no worries.

Everything I experienced at AAVE was completely sucessful. We had so much fun in everything we did.

The AAVE experience surpassed all of our expectations and met our dreams. We said goodbye to our young daughter on her 14th birthday as she boarded the international flight to Spain for the very first time. And 3 weeks later, on July 20th we welcomed back our mature and very evolved daughter. Her growth was evident to us the minute we saw her. She couldn’t stop talking about the entire trip, from what she saw and experienced to her wonderful group and super star leaders. The way in which the leaders mobilized the kids to get to know each other and work as a team was brilliant. Thanks!

Max loved his trip. The most successful outcome was the home stay and his desire to learn Spanish. If you had told him he would love staying with a woman and her middle aged grown son, he would have said “What? Are you nuts?” But it was great and he really learned Spanish as well. He also loved the hiking and is planning a smester at the University of Salamanca when he gets to college.

The entire trip was successful from surfing to Spanish classes there wasn’t a bad moment!

This trip to Spain was needless to say my best summer experience ever!
