"When I was initally searching for a study abroad program, I knew I wanted to be in South America with a Christian program that included a homestay. L&LI was just that! The staff works hard to make sure that students are getting the most out of their experience. Every aspect of the semester has been taken into consideration, & the staff shows their immense love & care. I thoroughly enjoyed studying abroad in Ecuador, & can't imagine it without L&LI's support & guidance."
"This program is amazing! Not only do you get to live in Ecuador -- a country full of warm and interesting people, but you also get to be a part of a very special community within the program. One of the most impactful aspects of this program is the spiritual teaching and guidance. The staff of Living and Learning really care about each student and push them to become who they were created to be by God."
"Azusa Pacific has sent many students with Living and Learning International. I could not be more pleased with every aspect of the program. The top quality academic offerings, great internship opportunities, the cultural experiences, the whole-person development model they espouse, all lead to a once-in-a-lifetime experience for students to develop as culturally competent Christians. Their attention to detail related to housing, in-country experiences, safety and security, leadership, and more, make LLI one of best study abroad options I am aware of."
