Dina: The trip was so much fun, I want to go back again. Particularly, I was always intrigued, this is my little historical nerd, I have always been intrigued by the golden age of Spain. I really liked seeing Andalusia and Morocco, both things that I knew. I mean, Andalusia, knowing that there was a golden age and actually seeing, going fact finding, but also seeing a modern day Muslim society was definitely eye opening and very interesting.

Tanjila: The trip was great. We had a wonderful time. The places we went to were amazing, beautiful. And in Spain, the Alhambra Palace, in Cordoba; the Mesquita in Morocco, Fez, Rabat, just traveling around in the tour bus, going to our sites and having discussions in the bus along the way about what we were seeing, what we were doing, what we were learning, it was fantastic.

Brie: In what we consider middle America, not necessarily from an elitist standpoint but just a cultural perspective, I wouldn't have imagined Tulsa to be a hotbed of inter-religious dialogue and have such a large Arab Muslim population. So it was really for me to see and deal with my misconceptions.

Joseph: The trip was a lot of fun, it was great. I had just graduated college a week before, a free ticket out west, can't complain about that, with young college students my age. I guess there was part of it where we really felt we were doing something for the positive. I mean you don't get to see the film for months later and are unsure what it is going to look like, but you know, the mission was clear. I think we all felt like we were part of something so it was definitely a lot of fun.

Daniel: The trip was great. Look, it was a new experience to travel with a different group of people in a country that I hold so near and dear, to a region of the world that I hold so near and dear to my heart. Anything I can do to at least feel I am making a difference in that part of the world, is an opportunity I am going to grab for, it was a lot of fun. It was fun to travel with students my age, who are really friends and who I have grown to admire and like as people.

Zachariah: It was a lot of fun and I am a big fan of the desert and to be able to travel in the Sinai and just in that area in general, it is striking, the landscape. It was tense too, so it was a weird feeling, I guess. Sinai was such a striking experience just because the tension wasn't there as much as it was when we entered Israel again. So I guess it was both fun and not fun at points because the Sinai, I think was one of the most powerful trips I have taken. And in the Israeli part, I definitely felt less tense and we had a number of uncomfortable incidents that contributed to the general sense of tension on that part of the trip.
