“Going to Trinidad is a life-changing experience. You may go there thinking that you know who you are but leave with an entirely different perspective, knowing more about who are and who you want to be. Trinidad is a place that sticks to your pores and will affect your choices for the rest of your life, and you will always want to go back. Your time there will change your life.”

"The Trinity in Trinidad experience is unlike anything I have ever had before. The differences in student life gave me new levels of independence and allowed me to immerse myself into the culture more. The food, history, and art were all new and beautiful, but it was truly the people I met while enjoying these aspects of the culture that made the program truly amazing. From the joyous participants of Carnival to the welcoming embraces of the program staff, you can see why the students that choose Trinidad make plans to return."

“You can shape your experience here however you want, find what brings you joy, learn to let go and chill, find ways to step outside of your comfort-zone, and explore.”
