Ready to take a tropical detour? You are in the right place!

In episode you’ll hear from Caleb Kyle, an alum of Outward Bound Costa Rica and Torchbearer’s in New Zealand. His gap year experiences included surfing in sleepy Kiwi towns, exploring his faith through being in nature, gaining leadership skills in Central America and learning to roll with a covid evacuation in Panama.

Caleb’s biggest takeaways:

  • Priority of where he lives – he discovered he wants to be in Colorado to take advantage of snowboarding, rock climbing, kayaking and the other outdoor activities he enjoys. His gap year experiences allowed him to gain more certifications to do these activities safely in the back country.
  • Maturity and more self-awareness

“Outward Bound Costa Rica was the most difficult thing I’ve ever done but I was able to learn so much from it.”
