How can I study abroad and travel the world....?

Be an exchange student through Rotary. It's the cheapest program of its kind, and you might be able to get a scholarship to pay for airfare. You'll spend a year in the country of your choice (well in your top 4), learn the language, eat the food, meet amazing people, and see a different part of the world. Rotary's got about 40 countries to choose from (including Brazil, South Africa, Finland, Spain, Japan, Italy, Lithuania, Mexico, Croatia, Germany, South Korea, Chile, Russia, Turkey, Thailand, seriously everywhere). Without going into too many details, I'm writing this from my lyc�e (high school) and today marks my 6th month here in the south of France. I am so happy with my decision to do this and I'd recommend it to just about anyone. Research it, because if you feel the desire to see the world, find a way to make it work and DO IT! It will likely be the best decision of your life. If you have any further questions, feel free to ask. Good luck finding what's right for you!
