What is the Nutrition Travel Exchange?

When the opportunity came to travel through NTE, I packed my bags and said yes to some much-needed sun and fun. What I loved most was that  I only needed a couple of hours to handle business, and the rest of the time was mine to explore, exhale, and actually enjoy the resort. That’s the kind of work-life balance I preach about and this trip let me practice it beautifully.

My first NTE teaching vacation was amazing! It was well organized, and Meaghan was easy to communicate with before, during, and after the trip. The activities were enjoyable, and the whole experience felt low-stress. The resort was beautiful and had great food. I would highly recommend this opportunity to any dietitian!

I have gone on two NTE trips in Mexico, and both experiences have been unforgettable. I was amazed by the customer service at both Hyatt resorts that I visited and enjoyed delicious meals and beverages. The beachfront views were stunning! I was so grateful to bring family along on both trips to share the experiences with me. Best of all, the connections I made with the guests from all over the world during my nutrition activities motivated me to continue working in the nutrition industry. People are eager to learn more about health from credible individuals, so this opportunity is unique and important.

I loved my first trip with NTE in Cancun. Fist off, I love traveling and had done quite a bit of global travel through my previous employer so I was looking for my “travel alone time”. This was a perfect mix of alone time and connecting with people. I was able to see private clients from my hotel room in between activities and engage with new people on a topic I could talk about all day. I’m very grateful for Meaghan and NTE.

My nutrition travel exchange trip was amazing! Meaghan had all of the games and nutrition activities planned and put together and prior to the trip we met so that I was prepared and knowledgeable about how to run the games and activities. Once in the Dominican I was able to carry out the games and activities with ease and fun! Teaching nutrition in other languages was a fun experience and with the assistance of the activities staff we had a great time with resort guest teaching them about nutrition in a fun and relatable way. The resort staff are excited to have us there as part of their activities and are eager to assist in any way. This trip helped me find my why again and revitalize my love for teaching nutrition. 

My time working with Meaghan from NTE and the resort team was so rewarding! It was so fun getting to use my skillset in such a unique (& beautiful!) setting. My favorite part was getting to meet folks from so many different places and hear their stories! Awesome way to use Spanish too if you know it. If you want to try something new, I highly recommend the nutrition exchange program! Meaghan supports you every step of the way.
