An extreme way of studying English is communicating with your foreign friends AND doing something different like – HIKING! In this part of our blog. Here’s the story of our Korean and Japanese students who break into an intense way of learning English.

The Only Rule: English only Policy while hiking the mountains of Baguio City, Philippines.

It took 30 minutes by jeepney to reach the starting point of Mt. Kalugong from Pines International Academy. There’s no traffic! so It is an easy access for everyone.

FIRST STEP!

The walk! students pass by big houses, muddy roads and barking dogs! that’s true- dogs were barking but don’t worry they are harmless, they just want to show off.

THE TOP

The climb wasn’t hard but the most interesting part is reaching the top of the mountain! The trail here is a little bit dangerous so be sure to have strong and none slippery shoes. This part made the students break the rule. They spoke in their own languages! kkk, it is because of the level of difficulty of these big rocks! lol
