BUITEX stands for ‘BUITenlandse EXcursie’ (foreign excursion) and organizes therefore an excursion to a foreign destination. Previous destinations include Copenhagen, Ljubljana, Scotland and last year it was Stockholm. The trip usually takes place in the summer break, directly after the resits.

After the Christmas break, usually during a ‘DoMiBo’, the location of the oncoming trip is revealed. Usually, a few mysterious hints are provided by the committee to puzzle with. Since the trip is formally called an excursion, the location is interesting for spatial planners and landscape architects and an educational activity will be part of the program. There will, of course, be enough time for other activities and free time. Ranging from adventurous undertakings to calm bicycle trips or interesting visits of notable places, it will be a guaranteed experience that you will never forget! If you like traveling, then you must keep the first week after the resits free in your schedule for sure!

Are you interested in organizing the trip? It won’t be a mistake to join the committee! Together we will organize the highlight of the summer break for our fellow students. As a BUITEX member, you look at everything from possible locations to transport to that location, from activities on location to budgeting the trip. Lastly, and most importantly, you are, as the committee, responsible for making sure that everything goes to plan during the trip. You are welcome to follow a meeting if you are interested!

Hope to see you on this year's trip!
