Hutchison's Departure


In the case of global travel, a departure inevitably involves leaving one place in pursuit of another destination. Sometimes one leg of a journey is taking you far away from home, while another departure might be the trip that returns you to the place where you started.  In our case, our departure for Peru starts with our 10 Hutchison Leads Global Ambassadors and their parents gathering at Hutchison at 6:00AM tomorrow morning.

In the quiet of early morning, I imagine that we will all sense a multitude of collective and personal emotions, especially as we depart the gates of Hutchison for this inaugural trip. We will be departing for experiences we can't yet fully imagine. But, as with any profound journey, the best moments happen in the space between what you plan for and how you approach what comes your way. With open minds and hearts, we aim to lean into our experiences and create enduring relationships with each other and the families we come to know in Patacancha.

Our global service trip will place us in Patacancha, Peru and through World Leadership School we will be connected to the Awamaki Weaving Project.

Any journey begins with first steps, and as we depart tomorrow we invite you to share in our experiences along the way.
