Our founders, Alexis and Diana, both lived their own transformation study abroad experiences during their high school and university years. Serendipitously, Alexis and Diana were brought together to collaborate on an international project at a local Costa Rican university. From that initial collaboration, they realized the gaps in Costa Rica's study abroad landscape, and based on their own previous study abroad experiences (both the good and the bad), how these gaps could be filled through a new type of offering.

​

Their commitment to dependability, quality, attention to detail, and truly customized programming allowed them to quickly establish GLP as a reference for study abroad programming in the region. Since being founded in 2019, GLP has hosted nearly 300 students from around the world through both in-person and virtual programming, and has established partnerships with over 20 institutions globally for future programs. Locally, they have built strong relationships with local NGOs, public, and private organizations with similar values and commitments to local progress and development.
