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 a summer---what life is like for teens in other parts of the world. An experience that will change you and your view of our planet forever.

A YFU exchange program is the learning adventure of a lifetime. YFU is a homestay where you'll 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 a news school on academic programs. 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.

If beaches, dunes and blue lagoons are your thing, then come and experience the vibrant beauty of Uruguay. Get ready to dress up for Carnivals, some of the most popular events in Uruguay, and discover the close family ties and calm, easy-going lifestyle that make the families of Uruguay so warm and friendly.
