Our wonderful planet offers abundant lessons, especially when you’re given the incredible opportunity to observe and learn about sustainability firsthand, from one of the world’s pioneering cities. Expanding Boundaries International is proud to share the enriching journey of one of our Passport Scholars, whose study abroad experience in London deepened their understanding of recycling, sustainability, and green practices.

A Classroom Without Borders: Sustainability in Action

London became a vast, open-air classroom for our scholar, who, thanks to the generous support of our community, embarked on a university course focused on sustainability—a subject that resonates with the heart of global environmental stewardship. Our scholar shares with us:

“Near our hotel was the lecture classroom where we delved into how London is striving to transform the city’s environment. It was eye-opening to see the commitment to eco-friendly initiatives. The city is an archetype of sustainability, cleverly using materials to build a future without waste.”

Architectural Marvels and Green Innovations

As part of their course, our scholar ventured through the architecturally rich landscapes of London, from historical edifices to cutting-edge stadiums. Each site offered insights into the city’s innovative use of materials and efforts to reduce its carbon footprint.

“We explored the architectural wonders of the City of London, toured the forward-thinking Tottenham Hotspur stadium, and absorbed the time-honored magnificence of Westminster Abbey. Each step on our tours told a story of conservation and respect for resources.”

Beyond The Books: Seeing London through New Eyes

Education can’t be confined to the confines of a classroom or the pages of a textbook. For our scholar, London presented an array of experiences that transcended traditional learning:

“Riding on the London Eye gifted us a panoramic view of this majestic city. I even got to spend my 21st birthday there! It was a reminder that learning and life experiences go hand-in-hand.”

When it comes to cuisine, our scholar found a taste of home but with a delightful twist:

“The food in London bears resemblance to the U.S., yet what stood out was the affordability, proving that sustainable living can indeed be accessible.”
