Trip To Swaziland Leads To New Horizons

This article is written by a student writer from the Her Campus at Cabrini chapter.

Cabrini offers many service trips to students that allow them to travel all around the world.

Kimberly Miralda took Cabrini up on the offer and traveled to Swaziland over winter break. This was Miralda’s first service trip, however, she will be interning in Swaziland over the upcoming summer. Miralda was able to connect with the students who were at the camp she visited and learn about their culture.

“It was my favorite part of the trip.” Miralda said.

During her time in Swaziland Miralda was able to work with the summer camp there. “We had activities for the children who were in the camp and we were like camp counselors,” Miralda said.  

Miralda will be traveling to Swaziland again over the summer and was able to shadow who she will be working for. “We went to visit [a] homestead but I also got to participate with the summer camp that was running with the other students,” Miralda said.

Since coming home, Miralda says she would love to do a trip like this again. “It is a great opportunity,” Miralda said. “I would advise anyone to take the chance that is given to them and go on the trip.”
