After participating in an education-based tour of Europe during high school, Terrapin Tours owner Kelly Cooke realized the cultural, educational, and personal growth one can experience while traveling. The experience shaped her career path and helped her to realize her full potential. Through the Terrapin Tours Travel Scholarship program, her wish is to share her love of travel and the benefits it can provide with students in New Hampshire.
