Wake up, wake up, wake up! We’re going back to school—but this time there’s no exam, no homework, and nobody asking what you plan to do with your degree.
We’ll aim for a self-guided tour of the Nationality Rooms, exploring classrooms where the architecture deserves considerably more attention than the blackboard.
First visit? Resist the urge to look up photos beforehand. Save yourself the pleasure of walking in and discovering the rooms in person. The photos don’t do them justice anyway.
We’ll also browse the small gift shop for interesting handmade treasures. Bargain hunters, adjust your expectations: this is more “where else would I find this?” than “look what I got for $3.”
Come curious. School supplies optional.
