Who Are You?
Our reasons for traveling have changed over the years. It no longer matters what travelers do; it matters why they do it. Making
bigger memories, filling journals with photos, and inspiring and sharable content.Sharing all of that with the world. Our participants articulate that their program is about more than what they get in their host community or their host family. It’s about what they can bring back. “From one gift comes many.”
The Cultural Exchange Project was founded in 2006. Our leaders bring over 130 years of combined experience in international education and cultural exchange. At the same time, we’re young enough to know what’s needed in the twenty-first century and old enough to have learned what’s not needed. As one of our Founders recently said, “Sometimes it isn’t what’s “in the cloud” but what’s “below the cloud” that makes the difference."

"I'm an adult with a college degree, but still, my parents want to know I'm going to be safe when I travel abroad." Health and safety are our priorities. We are bound by this Code of Conduct.
