Who We Are:
At Rooted Life Adventures, small groups live together in gorgeous homes abroad while having incredible adventures, experiencing new cultures, volunteering, interning, learning real-life skills, and making the kind of friends and memories that last.
But what makes us different? Support is built in. An on-site Wellness Coach and program instructors live alongside the group, providing in-the-moment guidance and mental health support when students need it—while keeping the experience focused on adventure, friendship, independence, and fun.
It’s adventure with purpose, designed to help young people build confidence, resilience, and real-world skills—while having the time of their lives.
Travel the world. Figure your life out.
Middle Ground Program
So many teenagers and young adults are navigating some level of mental health challenge today. They need more support than the average experience provides, but they don't need a full on therapeutic experience either. We’re one of the first programs designed specifically for that middle ground student—who is increasingly becoming the everyday norm.
Finding the Right Level of Support
FOR OUR STUDENTS:
Gap Year Program
SUPPORT IS TOO LITTLE
Supported
Program
SUPPORT IS JUST RIGHT
Therapeutic Program
SUPPORT IS TOO MUCH
Our families want all of the fun and friendship but also want a program that supports executive functioning, regulation, social skills, independent living, and self direction- a structured program that helps young people build confidence and launch into life.
"There is no place for just an average girl with a history of anxiety. You're either expected to be perfectly independent or have a full-on breakdown. If I could dream something up, it would look like this.” Parent

ON-SITE WELLNESS COACH
An incredible adventure—with someone there to help you figure out how YOU do life. Each group has program instructors and a dedicated on-site Wellness Coach, who is a licensed therapist, who lives alongside the group to step in when support is needed and step back when it's not. This isn't clinical therapy. It's real-life coaching, happening in real time—helping you build the skills and confidence to navigate life your way.
Come Home Ready for Life.
Everything we do is designed around four things we want students to leave with:
Self
Know yourself. Figure out who you are going to be in this world.
Belonging
Find your people—and learn how to build community.
Capability
Know I can do this—and get the skills to back it up.
Purpose
Have somewhere you're excited to go next.

Why do we believe in international travel?
Young adulthood is about figuring out your place in the world. How are you supposed to do that if you have never seen it?
