Irish senior citizens are, for the first time, being offered an opportunity to take part in worldwide educational adventures abroad. They can now participate in the Experiment in International Living's (EIL) Educational Travel Programmes for the over 55s.

They could soon be off on the "Introduction to French Cooking and Gastonomy" or "The Tradition of Christmas in Mexico," tours run by the educational exchange organisation.

Those interested in the programmes available should write to Ms Dolores Horan, EIL, Courthouse Chambers, 27-29 Washington Street, Cork, or Telephone 021-275101.
