Rome, 16°

Why travel?

Each year, before the Easter holidays, the College organizes a study trip abroad of approximately one week.

Before they leave, the students take part in meetings and discussions about the history, the traditions and the current situation of the country they will visit. During the trip, sightseeing alternates with meetings organized at public offices, cultural centres, associations and universities. But there are also informal moments, such as exchanges of opinion at the offices of the young Turkish businessmen or our visit to the library of Cairo University. There is often the opportunity to meet students from the local universities.

These trips, therefore, offer the best way to approach cultures which are different from our own and to gain a more profound insight into them, so as to encourage respect for other traditions and integration among different nationalities/peoples. But the trip is also, and above all important for the time spent together and for the unforgettable moments it provides, which strengthen friendships and the affection of the students for the College.
