INDIA JOURNEY 2026

FROM CHAOS TO CLARITY: WHAT TEN DAYS IN INDIA TAUGHT US Following the long-standing tradition of China journeys, Group T and De Nayer campuses organised their first India Journey during the Easter break of 2026. Eight students participated in this unique experience, set up by Ranjini Mayichery. After three years of hard work to bridge the gap between outdated stereotypes and the vibrant reality of modern India, Ranjini finally made it happen! From the bustling streets of New Delhi to the serene beaches of Goa, our group of pioneers experienced a journey of a lifetime. Co-organiser and coach Marc Van Aken wrote a lively travelogue.
