Over the weekend, Cross Cultural Internship Program (CCIP, www.theccip.com) FUSIA/CCIP J-1 interns traveled to Boston, Massachusetts. The trip was organized by student leaders, and included visiting historical sites and spending time at landmarks like Faneuil Hall. It was the first time in Boston for most of the group.
The group of interns traveled by bus, leaving from Manhattan early Saturday morning and returning Sunday evening. The two-day trip was an opportunity for the exchange visitors from Asia to see one of America's most famous cities. The group planned their own itinerary and took hundreds of photos across the city.
"Organizing a trip like this was a great learning experience," stated Kimmy from City University of Hong Kong, one of the three activity leaders for the trip. This summer, Kimmy is interning at AmericaChina Public Affairs Institute. "This extra responsibility really reinforces what I’m learning at my internship."
"The two universities, MIT and Harvard, are the highlight of our trip to Boston. We walked in the campus, appreciating the history of the schools and buildings, observing how people there read books on the lawn, enjoying the peaceful yet energetic way of life," commented Connie from Nanyang Technological University.
Patrick from City University of Hong Kong said, "This was a very interesting experience. Not only can we go to a museum together but we can also learn something about the US culture. It was fun also a good chance for all of us to build mutual trust and friendship. I really look forward to the next activity and that we can soon have fun together. Thanks to all the leaders. "
Later in the summer, more interns will take a trip to Washington, D.C. These trips, along with a variety of cultural activities, give the visitors insight into life in the United States. CCIP's goal is to provide its interns with a holistic experience that combines career training and cultural immersion.
