Travel Enrichment

It’s almost a cliche to say that travel broadens the mind. Enrichment is the inevitable consequence of  the kind of learning experiences found traveling, and never more so than in travel themes such as: adventure, agriculture, archaeology, arts, culture, cuisine, education, forestry, gardening, language, nature, science, sports, wine and wildlife.

Take it from the ancients, “The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” St. Augustine

Close to home, enrichment can happen in home projects, team challenges, and day trips. Here are a few ideas and resources for enrichment both at home and abroad:

Culinary Travel:
