On Teaching in the Mountains : A Glimpse into the Logistics of Teaching in the Nepali Himalayas6/19/2020 By Allie CavallaroAllie is a 2016 Trek to Teach alumna who has a passion for the program and for helping others find their paths to impactful adventures. She currently is a jack-of-all-trades, and master of none, on Trek to Teach’s North American team and is living in San Francisco After a directionless beginning, in 2015 I realized that despite everything my parents, peers, counselors, and teachers had told me, I wasn’t ready for college. I’d worked hard to get there. Then, standing on the threshold of another academic journey after high school, I had absolutely no idea what I wanted to do with my life.
