"Using your vacation to complete a module? It's such a waste of time!" These thoughts may come into your mind when I first mention I'm doing a vacation CDS (cross disciplinary studies), Global Citizenship.
BUT WHO KNOWS? This became one of the best trip everrrr~~~
It all started with a week of tutorial lessons, then an 8 days educational trip and a final presentation.
The highlight of GC is obviously the trip, therefore I'll be sharing all the fun things we did during this "educational trip"! Picture based~ ^^

GOLD LEAF ICE CREAM!! Ishikawa was famous for its gold products, therefore this is a must try there!! 450Yen!
Next, we meet up with students from Kanazawa Commercial High School! They gave us a tour around Kenrokuen Garden in english! Though they are not fluent in english, we can see that they are trying their best to converse with us! KAWAII DESU
