Traveling in the United States

The United States is a dynamic and diverse country. Work & Travel USA gives you the opportunity to explore the country for up to a month after you complete your work commitment. (And since you’ll have some time to earn money, the program makes it easier for you to finance your travel plans.) If you plan to take advantage of the opportunity to travel the US, InterExchange recomments that you:

  • Plan ahead. Have an idea of where you’d like to go and how long you’d like to spend there. Travel in the US can be expensive, so make sure you have enough money to cover your costs.
  • Consider traveling with other international students. During your employment, you will likely meet other students on the InterExchange Work & Travel USA program. Traveling with friends can be safer, more enjoyable and more affordable.
  • Ask Americans for advice. Talk to your employer and other Americans you meet about interesting travel destinations.
  • Stay safe. Use  common sense when you travel. If you have an emergency, contact InterExchange for assistance.
