I am Christian and have been accepted into a structured gap year program called Navigare run by the Disciples of The Hearts of Jesus and Mary. It is a full immersion program in Madrid, Spain. It is about 11 months long, from late August of 2025 to July of 2026. I will be staying with the religious group. I will learn Greek and Latin literature at a nearby University and I will also help teach at a nearby elementary school. Navigare offers opportunities to travel around Europe. Navigare emphasizes the finding of masculine integrity and becoming a strong Christian leader. In addition, the program will help me find my vocation. I am especially excited to become fluent in Spanish, become closer to God and find myself as a man of God through this program.
