Beyond the destinations, this immersion provided valuable opportunities to connect classroom knowledge with real-world industry practices, discover local products and traditions, and gain fresh perspectives on hospitality, food and beverage, and tourism.
Every experience became an opportunity to learn something new, appreciate the people behind the industry, and bring meaningful insights back to the classroom.
