Focus Europe is the line for you who want to get to know and experience the best Europe has to offer. Sights, history, young people in Europe and cultural differences. We go on interrail.

This year you will get to know our own continent Europe better!

Focus on European history and culture

We learn about and discuss historical retrospectives and current challenges facing Europe

We get to know each other well and form friendships through varied and social activities

We choose an aid project that we work on ahead of the trip, and which we can visit on the trip

There will be a good mix between theory and practice

Interrail and island hopping: The destinations vary from year to year. In 23/24 we are going to Demark, Germany, Austria, Italy, Slovenia and Croatia. In spring we will take the Orient Express which will end in Istanbul.
