Exploration of central Europe through group travel to Vienna, Prague, and throughout Hungary, with a particular focus on Hungary’s capital city, Budapest. Emphasis will be placed on the process of understanding cultures other than one’s own, through the study of important sites, interaction with central Europeans, and extensive writing. Students will develop and execute travel itineraries in the Budapest area, keep a travel journal, and write an extended self-reflective essay. Lodging, travel from city to city, and excursions within Hungary are arranged for the group. Taught in English.
