Rainbow Lifelong Learning Institute

We’ve all taken journeys. Here’s your chance to share with your classmates what you learned from your travels. We’ll be exploring more than travelogues; rather, we will be sharing the essence of your experience. How did your trip enhance your life? Were there things you learned? What was compelling and meaningful? Share how you took an inner journey to discover the essence and meaning of your outer journey. If you join this class, you’ll be taking a trip around the world as we explore each other’s meaningful travel experiences.

Students will take the class on a journey that captures the essence of a travel experience. Students will be encouraged not to just share where they went, but to share how the trip enhanced their life. Each student will have about 15-30 minutes to tell the experience. They will address the following questions:

1.    Why did you go on the trip? (kinds of travel: nature, culture, history, people, professional, pure enjoyment, language learning, study, other)

2.    What was your goal for the trip?

3.    What was unexpected that you learned on the trip?

4.    Was there a moment that stood out?

5.    What was a frivolous/fun experience you had?

6.    What souvenirs/keepsakes did you purchase and why? What do they mean to you?

7.    Why do you value travel in general?

8.    Did your life change in any way? How?

No required materials. We’ll need 3 students to sign up for the first class
