One of my kids is on a 2 week program in Barcelona. - 30 teens - 4 groups broken into areas of study- business and entrepreneurship, art and architecture, Spanish language and culture, photography. - morning study and afternoon excursions - live in dorms They arent speed running tourist spots or doing the instagram check the box style of travel. They get to experience living in a new place, and learn something new and meaningful. Why arent there adult trips like this? My husband and I see empty nest in our future (4 years away, but as anyone with older kids know, time starts to fly 💨) and we talk about wanting experiences like this. @balajis.eth maybe empty nesters will be a new growth vector for network school in the future- successful semi retired adults with time on their hand but still have the burning need to go deep learning new skills, see the world, and build

I can see the connection. I can also see how that would be a hard field trip to coordinate lol
