Random Walks - Mystery Trip
Overview |
 |
Itinerary Description |
Mystery Trip could be sending you ANYWHERE to do ANYTHING. We like to joke that the Mystery Trip will be going to Greenland (we promise, it won't be this year). But you get the idea! Make sure you are comfortable with all types of adventure because you never know what type of trip this will be. You will find out where you are going at the airport on departure day! We will, however, tell you how to pack about a month before the trip. Those who choose this trip will return to campus with a bit of swagger. We will only assign nationalities to this trip who will not require visas. Is the Mystery Trip the trip for you? Take a look at the Spider ratings to see if it is the right blend for your interests. If it is, the Mystery Trip leaders double-dare you to sign up! |

Accounting) Booth Concentrations: 2023 Random Walk: Mystery (Brazil) Hobbies: Petting other people’s cats and dogs, go on impulsive trips, binge watching crime shows, walking around aimlessly, taking videos of weird/funny things you do. Fun Facts: I am trying to start an unofficial hot pot club at Booth. I beat Kev and Keagan at arm wrestling (it’s true, ask me for video footage). I got a scar from trying to do a jump split in the shower (don’t ask me why, I do not know how to do a jump split even on flat ground). |
