All of us wait eagerly for one thing every year and
that is the study tour. The very thought of study tours generates excitement in
all the students especially when we get the opportunity to go to such exotic
places. This year in January our entire department i.e. Department of Communication
and Journalism of Mumbai University, Kalina
campus decided to take us to Kerala also known as God’s own country. For all
the students of MA PR it was something
that we were desperately looking forward to. The idea of travelling in trains doesn’t
really excite me but the journey turned out to be a fun experience and was that
bad.
I realized that you need to have good company
especially if you have to travel for almost 30 Hours which is a long time, but
it didn’t feel that way because we literally had a blast and blew the roof.
Study tours helps the students get to know students not only from their own
class but the entire department and I guess that is the whole idea behind
organizing study tours. All MA PR
students of Mumbai University Kalina including
other departments got the chance to get to know each other better. We got the
chance to develop a rapport with our professors because this is the time when
they are at their informal best. It’s a different feeling when they are in
college compared to when they are outside the campus; during the tour I realized
that the entire faculty was soo friendly and one amongst us.
Kerala
is rightly known as God’s own country, the backwaters, the boart rides, the
bird sanctuary you will find greenery everywhere, less pollution compared to
other cities and the best part is people hardly honk, whereas in Mumbai people
keep honking and knock your brains off, but there is something that vegetarians
need to know that you cannot survive for long if you are one, there are very
few options available and I remember my friend cribbing about the food every
day and I felt sooo sorry for her poor thing! But all in all it was a trip of a life time and i am sure students of MA PR of Mumbai University, Kalina are looking forward for another trip next year and hope that it will be far more adventourous and rocking than the previous one.
