Open Virtual Exchange Journeys

Each of these kid-friendly journeys follows the experiences of a stand-out Reach the World traveler as they dive head-first into an exciting new country and culture. Read about a traveler’s journey and then meet them in-person on a video call! All upcoming video calls will be announced on our Events page and will be livestreamed on Reach the World’s YouTube channel. Simply refresh that page at the time of the scheduled call, and you’ll be able to join the fun–for free! Read the traveler’s published journey beforehand and then ask them your questions via the YouTube chat bar.

Open In-Country Virtual Exchange Journeys

Want to join a traveler who is currently abroad as they explore a new place? Pick one or more of these open virtual exchanges and join the journey as it’s happening! Starting April 13th, each traveler will publish one new article per week on their journey homepage and participate in live video calls where your curious children can ask him/her questions. This is an extraordinary opportunity to forge a positive, personal connection with a traveler and learn a lot about a new country and culture. The video call schedule will be posted weekly on our Events page.
