Gap Year Programs in Argentina,Buenos Aires

Buenos Aires is not only the capital of Argentina, but also arguably of beef, tango, and soccer. Its grand historical architecture is suggestive of the European capitals, but the vibe here definitely has the hustle and bustle of a Latin American city, too. While Argentina’s rocky economy can pose challenges and frustrations in your daily life during your gap year in Buenos Aires, the upside comes in the form of exchange rates that will make this a very affordable year abroad.

Costa Rica's Turtle Conservation Project was one thing I will never forget! Such an eye opening and amazing experience. The IHQV program is an amazing way to explore the world in a feasible way.

IHQV Brings so much more, more ham any guided tour, more than a resort, and more than anything you could experience on your own. They have demonstrated such strong dedication to make sure every part of the trip is a great lea...

Why Take a Gap Year in Buenos Aires?

Along with opportunities to volunteer, which is common in many Latin American capitals, Buenos Aires is a popular destination for temporary “work holiday” positions in hostels and hotels where your work is often compensated in part by the provision of a free place to stay. Gap year programs in Buenos Aires can also be spent learning Spanish, but be prepared! Porteño probably doesn’t sound like the Spanish you heard in high school. The unique Argentine spin will make a fun challenge for the linguistically adventurous.

Feel at home in the Paris of Latin America. For those who love the nightlife, safely-navigated Buenos Aires gap years will be an absolute, if but tiring, blast—the club scene here doesn’t even get started until around 2 a.m. The more scholarly will love to spend their afternoons strolling through the city searching for their next good read at one Buenos Aires’s many bookstores.
