Hey a friend of mine and I received these letters over the mail which is inviting us to join a program called People to People.
I don't know the legitimacy of this program, but it says that it was founded by president Dwight Isenhower. <-- spelling lol.

It basically is asking me to register online and reserve a seat @ a meeting that will be held in January where we will be oriented in what is happening.
It offers travel to Italy, Switzerland and Austria.

Does anyone know the validity of this?
The website looks legit but I've heard stories of scams like these.

If it is I think I'll do it, go to Swiz

Google tells me it's legit, but pricy. Maybe you would be better off planning your own trip without the heavy overhead costs of the program.

2k-3k is pretty average for Highschool+ trips to other countries. My Japanese class trip to Japan was 2.5k I think for a 2 week trip with hotel and the likes. My brother was invite to attend one of those was suppose to visit a few of the European countries and stuff but he didn't want to fork over 1.6k :P
