#StayHomeAndExplore #在家環遊世界

We are almost three quarters of our way through 2020 and with the pandemic still lingering around, many of us feel frustrated with the lack of human interactions and constraints such as the travel ban. This is why we are launching our Explorers’ Month series! We will travel to one country every month with a dedicated guide and understand the history and the way of life through the locals’ perspective, learn their language and participate in an AmateurChef class to cook simple food from the country. We will also be having discussion sessions on important issues affecting the country. All of these will happen through our online channels. Let’s revolutionise travelling and continue on our journey to learn about the world!

 With more than 300 sign-ups, the responses have been very positive. A number of participants have reflected that our program is thought-provoking with over 80% of them reflected that they will recommend the session to their peers. There are a number of school teachers who have promoted our program to their students which broadens our range of audience. 

4 sessions every month

Fika Club – Explore and discuss the world’s latest news/ biggest headline with our guests!
Uncle Jey’s Canteen – Watch our cook-off competition and learn food cultures around the world!
Armchair Traveller – Travel at home with our local guide who will share their authentic local experiences!
Till’s Language Lab – Perfect language survival course where guests from different countries will teach you their official/ common language in exciting ways!

#在家環遊世界

疫情緣故,ICE自八月以來開始舉辦一個名為「探索月歷」的線上活動,目的是在不離開家園的情況下將世界帶給公眾,以不同角度,包括飲食,語言,虛擬旅行等,介紹世界各地的國家。讓學生能透過我們舉辦的免費活動在網上也能了解不同的文化知識。

直至現時已累積超過300多名的報名人數。眾多參加者認為我們的活動富有意義,不少老師更將計劃推薦給學生,令我們的觀眾層更加為廣泛。

每月4大主題活動:

– 晨間聊天室💬- 和來自世界各地的嘉賓一起探討即時新聞及城中熱話
– 坡仔食堂🍝- 從嘉賓們的料理對決中學習到各地獨有的飲食文化
– 坐遊世界🏖️- 旅行的另一種體驗:安坐家中,當地人帶領你去體驗最地道的本土文化
– 跟德佬學學外語📚- 用簡單、輕鬆的方法學習不同國家的標準/地區方言
