Amizade is a non-profit organization that creates safe, sustainable, and collaborative social learning experiences for everyone. Their vision is to create a world where diverse communities connect freely, forge lasting relationships, and build a more just planet together. Amizade’s expertise was not limited to volunteer vacations; rather the programs that were perhaps most transformational were with young people. From experiential learning projects in Montana to renovate a historic ranch and build an environmental research station to working with the Korrawinga Aboriginal Community in Australia, by 2004 Amizade had worked with over 20 communities in 13 countries.

I find Amizade so interesting because of the wide variety of locations they have different programs. From Italy to New Zealand to Washington DC to many other different locations you can join an Amizade program. I would suggest looking into amizade for anyone looking to travel as well as still being able to learn new things about the world.
