Description: Get ready to embark on a journey of discovery. A Youth For Understanding USA (YFU) study abroad program is an experience that will immerse you in the lives, cultures, and communities of a real family in one of more than 40 countries around the globe. An adventure where you'll learn, in a year, semester, or summer, what life is like for the teens in another part of the world. An experience that will change you and your view of our planet forever.

A YFU exhange program is the learning adventure of a lifetime. YFU is a homestay experience where you 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 even attend school on academic programs. Have a journey you could have never imagined, and you'll discover that the YFU experience is a powerful engine for personal growth.

Thailand will entice you with breathtaking natural beauty, magnificent palaces, golden temples and legendary tales.  It is a tapestry of culture influenced by its Indian and Chinese neighbors.  Thailand is a unique blend of political philosophies, Buddhist beliefs, and exotic cuisine.
