It includes: ✨ students and graduates looking for development opportunities and international experience; ✨ participants of exchange programs, internships, and educational projects for whom the world is open to new perspectives; ✨ mentors, experts, and teachers who share their knowledge, experience, and support; ✨ alumni of past programs who remain part of the community and help new participants; ✨ partners and organizers who make international programs a reality. We are united by different countries, cultures, languages, and professional interests.

HE WHO DOES NOT TAKE RISKS DOES NOT DRINK CHAMPAGNE IN MANHATTAN! "Oh, my youth! I lived such a luxurious life!" - I hope that with these words I will recall my best years. After all, this beautiful time is given only once in a lifetime. And every person wants to spend their youth brightly and unforgettably. They say it's not harmful to dream, and that is indeed true. We all truly love to dream. In our imagination, we paint beautiful pictures of our desires. For some, a dream carries them far into the mountains or oceans, others fly in a hot air balloon and enjoy the views of their native land. Others simply want to have a good family, children, or grandchildren. But for young people, a dream is not just a fantasy. Often our dreams become reality. I also love to dream and often think about what makes me happy and what makes me smile. Reflecting on this, I noticed that I feel joy when I think about America. Honestly! And in fact, it's not for nothing. In 2017, through the Work and Travel program from the International Exchange Center, my sister flew to work in the tourist town of Lake Placid in New York State. And ever since she returned, she never tires of talking about her impressions and adventures in America. She said that this country gave her true friends for life, a sense of complete freedom, unforgettable memories, and the best summer ever. The Work and Travel program is unique in that it provides many opportunities for students. Young people can travel, work, live, and communicate with different people, get acquainted with a foreign culture, feel a completely different atmosphere, and undoubtedly improve their language skills. Without a doubt, one of the main advantages of participating in the Work and Travel program is that you will earn enough money to cover the program and living expenses, and even more – for trips, shopping, and saving money for tuition. How will participating in the program help me in my future career? An interesting question! At the moment, I am studying to be a "social worker" at the L.N. Gumilyov Eurasian National University. Social workers work with vulnerable segments of the population, the sick, and the elderly. Such work requires a lot of patience, endurance, empathy, and compassion. In addition to these qualities, a social worker must be a strong expert in caring for people and understand legal issues related to the status of their wards. This is a complex type of work, and in order to do it every day, you must love it very much. I know firsthand that this field is very well developed in the States. In the USA, there is a wealth of information and practical methods in the social work profession. And the experience of being in the States will help me study this topic more deeply. Also, in the future, work experience will positively reflect on my resume. This is one of the main reasons why I want to visit America: not only to see a new world, new people, and get acquainted with a foreign culture with my own eyes, but also to learn more about my profession and improve myself. Based on all this information, I can highlight 8 advantages of the Work and Travel program for myself and others. 1. America is a chance to do something different. We live on a planet full of interesting, beautiful, diverse places and cultures that are worth exploring, experiencing, and understanding. And America is a country that cannot be missed. This place is unlike any other place in the world. I believe there is no better place to work and travel in the summer than in the United States of America. Most of the work we find through the program may differ from the work we usually do. And this is a great chance to learn different skills. America is a land of opportunity. 2. You will discover many new places and things. America is a huge country, and there cannot be a more diverse country from north to south and from east to west. You can find any landscape – massive cities, mountains, beaches, canyons, deserts, forests
