The best way to get to know the land "Down Under" is to experience it firsthand. See signs along the roadside warning of a nearby kangaroo crossing and learn about the Great Barrier Reef. Be in awe of the vastness of the Outback and have what the Australians call a dinky-di (genuine) experience. A YFU exchange program is the learning adventure of a lifetime. YFU is a homestay experience where you will live with a carefully selected host family who has agreed to open their home and their hearts to you, providing room, board and a caring home. You'll gain a global family, make new friends, and attend a new school. Have a journey you could have never imagined at home, and you'll discover that the YFU experience is a powerful engine for personal growth.

An Australian adventure
by: Nick MazenaProgram: Study Abroad in Australia | YFUMy experience was fantastic during my junior year of high school. I was integrated into my family very quickly and still maintain contact with my host brother. School was more about cultural experience than in class work which made it very fun. I also had the opportunity to spend a month on safari in the outback.
