NB! In this school you choose 2 Main Courses! You get a greater variety and can customize your year even more. Look at the possibilities.


Adventure combines physical activity with global understanding for a better world.
We emphasize personal development through collaboration with others.

Join us on our study trips:

1. Customized study trip to Egypt, where you get to experience the country from the "inside". Historical highlights, diving/snorkeling, desert safari, cultural meetings, the pyramids, the Sphinx, unforgettable experiences from South Sinai and Cairo. Cultural understanding is tested and the adventure awaits.

2. Study trip with a backpacker feel to Thailand. Cultural experiences from one of the world's most vibrant cities. Exotic challenges in the tropical rainforest with both elephants and tigers, and diving and beach life on the paradise island of KohTao or KohChang.

Our proximity to Oslo Airport makes us extra flexible to be able to change destinations quickly if necessary. The class finds the best solutions together, and we don't forget that Norway also has a lot to offer for the adventurous.
