The most memorable month of my life!
I woke up every single day with a smile on my face, looking forward to exploring a new city and country with new friends, all while living in a lovely apartment three blocks from the Diocletions Palace and the Aegean Sea. A fairy tale for sure. I am already looking into signing up for another program!

Our local partners in each location are thoughtfully selected for their sustainable practices and ethical values. We want to give underrepresented communities a voice and the opportunity to show you a side of their culture unseen before. Take an Afro-Peruvian music class, go on an LGBTQ+ history tour, spend the night with a tribe in the mountains, or sign up for any of our other experiences – we make sure that you’ll have the chance to foster a deep connection with the local community.
