Short-term summer abroad exchange program occurs during summer and is basically for students that love adventures. By this time, schools are closed and they are not in a session. Students between age 15-19 years are eligible for this program and its duration lasts for several weeks to a few months. However, family-to-family exchange program involves two families reaching on an agreement to send their child to a foreign country to be hosted by another family with a child in a similar age. This process then occurs vice-versa for the hosting family. International youth camps are summer camps which are mainly in Europe and other countries like USA, Brazil, Mexico, India, Taiwan, and Canada. The camps ensure social and cultural exchanges between youths from different countries of the world. Parents urging to get the best youth exchange program for their child can pick from any of these.
