JapanBound Experience 2025

JapanBound is more than just travel. Through cultural activities, immersive site visits, and inspiring guest speakers, our programs foster independent thinking, self-reflection, and a better understanding of today’s global world. Participants have ample opportunity to challenge themselves and break out of their comfort zones.

Portions of the itinerary were flexible, so students had the freedom to plan parts of their day. We planned a variety of activities for students to experience the essentials of Japanese culture. Participants met local students in Tokyo and Hokkaido who helped them navigate during excursions and experience first-hand student life in Japan.
