EUROPE

So, you want to go to Europe? But how could

you not? There’s something awfully romantic about spending midnight in Paris, watching the lights glisten on the famed La Seine. There’s something special about hearing the growls and grunts of cars on and around the vias and piazzas of Rome. There’s something magical about walking on the streets of London in front of Buckingham Palace as the roads close down for the iconic Changing of the Guard.

Europe—rich with history, culture, art, and adventure—is the ultimate destination for any backpacker from any background. For all the hullabaloo around this small continent, the fairytale-like legends that you hear from old men in parks, friends, and parents are, for the most part, true stories. Well, maybe all except Uncle Marty’s story claiming he found an old manuscript of Ulysses on a Dublin bar crawl..

Pub crawls and pretentious reading material aside, Europe awaits you. Paraglide above the Swiss Alps, shimmy your way into Berlin’s most exclusive clubs, or scuba dive between two tectonic plates in Iceland. When in Dubrovnik, find love on Lokrum Island and, in Athens, find your Adonis or Aphrodite. Get blown away by the beat of Pamplona’s Running of the Bulls and cheer on European sports teams in Munich’s beer gardens. Europe has been, and will likely continue to be, the starting point for the adventures of students all around the world. Join the company of your fellow wanderlust-stricken adventure seekers and set your trip apart from the rest.

Ready, set, Let’s Go!
