Cultural Exposure
This school is located 20 minutes away from the city.
There are students and teachers from Popayan and the areas nearby. They have had
international exchange students (from the Netherlands and Germany) before, and they are
willing to have more intercultural experiences since it has been very enriching.
Popayan is commonly called "the white city"
because of the color of the houses that
adorn its colonial architecture.
Founded in 1537, it is one of the oldest cities,
not only in Colombia, but in America. And
this historical tradition allows it to offer
visitors a wide range of tourist attractions.
