| Every semester AustraLearn sends a group of outstanding students to participate in semester abroad programs in Australia, New Zealand, and the South Pacific. These students have a variety of majors, backgrounds, and interests. We've chosen a handful of students to highlight during their time abroad to learn more about their interests and goals. These are students participating in noteworthy activities that include everything from scuba diving, spear fishing to volunteering with youth. We call these students Active Adventurers. We've broken these students into five main categories by interest: - Sport
- The Arts
- Academics
- Volunteering
- Travel and Adventures
