2021 Georgia Tech Alumni Travel Tour Schedule

Page 1


RAMBLIN’ AROUND THE WORLD w i t h G e o r g i a Te c h A l u m n i & F r i e n d s Dear Georgia Tech alumni and friends: If there is one thing the year 2020 has taught us, it is to dream of a better tomorrow for ourselves, our family and friends, our country, and our world. When we open ourselves to learn about things new to us, we have a better understanding and acceptance of those we perceive to be different. Travel is one way to open those doors to the world around us and continue learning. For 2021, we have put together a variety of tours to help us fulfill that dream of educating ourselves about the people and places of the world. The goal of our travel program is to offer enriching travel experiences to enhance your lifelong education, while strengthening your connection with fellow “yellow jackets” and with Georgia Tech. Take a moment to look over our 2021 tour schedule and start dreaming about getting back out into the world. Visit our web site at www.gtalumni.org/travel for more details and pricing. Looking forward to a better tomorrow and the opportunity to explore the world!
