Zugunruhe Experience: Leave the Nest, Spread Your Wings, Soar the World
The word Zugunruhe is a term derived from the German language that is best used to describe anxious behavior found within migratory birds seeking to take flight. Many of us have felt this same feeling at some point in our lives when things feel stagnant and a change needs to happen. At Zugunruhe Experience, we are the change that students have been seeking.
Zugunruhe Experience does not just offer student travel programs for some students, we offer student travel programs for every student.
