“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page”

What better way to connect with other exchange students in your area and learn more about America than taking a field trip?

Right before Christmas break, a group of 21 ICES exchange students living in Alabama had the opportunity to visit Nashville, Tennessee. They stayed at the beautiful Gaylord hotel and attended a holiday show at the historical Grand Ole Opry House. They also toured downtown; the perfect place to enjoy great southern food and listen to aspiring artists at local venues.

Haena from South Korea shared that this was a trip she will never forget. Cristina from Spain added that this experience helped this group become a true family.

We love exploring the South with our students and look forward to a great Spring filled with new adventures and loads of fun!
