Imagine stepping onto a bus or plane with your classmates, not knowing where the road will take you, but knowing it will be somewhere unforgettable. For EBC week, you’ll be part of a journey unlike any other: a mystery trip where the destination is hidden until you arrive. Will it be a city full of history and culture? A landscape of mountains, rivers, and trails? A place buzzing with new foods, traditions, and people to meet? The possibilities are endless, and that’s part of the excitement. Every day will bring new surprises, challenges, and opportunities to see the world in a fresh way.
This trip is about more than just where we go, it’s about how we experience it. By letting go of expectations and stepping into the unknown, you’ll learn how to embrace adventure with an open mind and a curious spirit. The mystery will push you to be flexible, to see the beauty in the unexpected, and to trust in the journey itself. Whether it’s trying something you’ve never done before, discovering a hidden gem, or sharing laughter with friends in an unfamiliar place, this week will remind us that the best adventures aren’t always the ones we plan: they’re the ones we let unfold.
