CityTravelReview

Welcome!

Planning what to do during gap? Want to take vocation abroad to enjoy the sunshine and the beach, but on the other hand to be productive enough so your cv can be enhanced after the break... Why not combine the two?

CityTravelReview (CTR) provides placement that send you to Germany, France, Spain, Scotland, England so you can pick up a new language or improve it, travel around the city, and at the end publish a travel guide which you can really make money if people buy it!

It is very simple. In the morning, you have your language class to understand the culture better. And then in the afternoon, you troll around the city to discover the local flavour. Meanwhile, you collect useful materials to work on the travel guide with your teammates. You will be supported by workshops conducted by journalists and other professionals, and sent to different media institutions to gain better insight of the media and publishing industry.

After a month (or longer), you will be leaving with a new language, a better understanding of a foreign culture and city, a bunch of good friends, and a once-in-a-lifetime memory.

Barcelona

Overview

Mountains, white sandy beaches, a vibrant music scene, delicious Spanish food, and world-renowned architecture - Barcelona is undoubtedly one of Europe’s must-see cities. Over the years, many influential people have called Barcelona home, from artists Salvador Dali and Pablo Picasso to chef Ferran Adria of elBulli fame and possibly Barcelona's most famous resident – modernist architect, Antoni Gaudi.
