Gap Year: 6-Month + Service Learning Opportunity in Brazil
Program Overview
The nightlife, landscapes, and architectural feats of Brazil will blow your mind. Hosting the 2014 World Cup, roars and cheers still echo in the Marcena Stadium. The Carnival is another sensation in itself—six days of music, food, and dancing. What a time. As a volunteer, you can experience this culture firsthand. The dishes aren't like any other and come from many cultures that speak different languages.
Being that United Planet is a member of the ICYE (International Cultural Youth exchange), you will be hosted by an organization of the ICYE. There are various projects you can help with.
