Three Iconic Hubs, One Unforgettable Japan Adventure

Empower Youth, Discover Japan.

Your time will be split between the hubs of Nagoya, Tokyo, and Kyoto. This setup gives you a great balance of modern city life and traditional Japanese culture.

You’ll start with a week-long orientation right in the country to learn language basics, get a feel for local customs, and head out on cultural trips. It’s the perfect way to get your bearings, build your confidence, and settle into your new community before camp kicks off.

What makes this program special is the freedom to travel without a long-term commitment. You’ll join an international community, teach local students on weekdays, and spend weekends exploring Tokyo’s vibrant neighborhoods, Kyoto’s historic shrines, or Nagoya’s local food scene = all backed by complete ground support and managed travel.
