Work and Travel USA

WHY WORK AND TRAVEL IN THE USA?

Let’s say you buy an all-inclusive package tour...

Your vacation is all planned out in advance by a rep, you just laze by the pool, cultural knowledge comes a travel-guide, and local interaction is limited to “Another beer, please”.

Kinda sounds like the vacation your parents would take, right? And you want a summer to truly remember and to meet real friends for life.

And that’s why we at IEC have given over 110 000 students the great opportunity to work and travel in the US since 1989 — and enjoy truly unique adventures.

Work and Travel USA is your first step into a brave new world. A world independent from your parents for a while, striving to get by and earn money yourself...and whether this summer is the best ever depends on YOU.

So...interested in an exciting challenge?

Work and Travel USA combines hard work with a great vacation. That’s why for students it’s pretty much the most interesting and affordable way to experience the awe-inspiring USA. So — discover this country like never before during your next summer vacation! Work and Travel USA is SO MUCH MORE than three to four months of summer work in the US in hotels, restaurants or amusements parks. It’s about making new friends from all over the world, fabulous adventures, and inspiring journeys. Check out the program profile below. Then pack your bags and take off!
