As we plan for the EF Tours trip, the first meeting was held to welcome all the new travelers attending the international trip. The first meeting was held on September 10, 2016 in room 239.

“I am looking forward for the trip because of the new countries we will be visiting and the new people I’ll be meeting,” junior Stephanie Mantilla said.

Paperwork was given out at the first meeting to the parents, regarding the basic rules and restrictions for their children traveling. During the closing of the meeting a few travelers from previous trips shared past experiences.

“The greatest part about EF tours was the interaction, but that wasn’t the only good thing on the trip. Making new friends along with all the new experiences like food, people, culture, sights. Too many to list,” senior Daniel Kricheli said.

The next meeting will be hosted during the first week of October. The next meeting will discuss further issues such as budget and packing.
