Mission Statement :
Our mission is to encourage people to recognize and appreciate cultural diversity. We believe that visiting a place firsthand allows one to truly experience the authenticity of a culture and develop one's own impressions. Our goals are to provide quality service and to create opportunities for people to explore our world and enlighten their eyes, minds and hearts. Traveling is a reciprocated flow of communication and interaction between people...the more you seek, the more you learn.
Cultural Embrace wants you to be more than a tourist. We take you to some of the world’s most fascinating destinations in a way that allows you to get the most out of your experience. We offer a wide range of unique experiential and educational programs for individuals and groups of all ages. We work one-on-one with you to customize an experience that will best fit your schedule, budget, skills, personal and professional goals.
What is an Immersion Program?
Our Immersion Programs enables you to develop and expand your interests and talents abroad. Whether you are a student trying to gain academic credit and work experience, or a professional looking for that meaningful vacation, or a retiree that wants to revive their life in another exotic destination, Cultural Embrace offers programs that will fit anyone’s schedule, budget, interests and passion. Guaranteed placements, pre-departure and local assistance are provided for every program.
TEACH ABROAD
The rewards of teaching English (and other subjects) around the globe are infinite. Share your knowledge with others and immerse yourself with the locals. Program includes placement, on-line TEFL certification course, major medical traveler’s insurance, and visa and housing support. Teaching experience and foreign language are helpful but not required. Paid and non-monetary benefits are available in China, East Asia, Eastern Europe, Spain, Thailand and Latin America. Housing and board are available for most destinations.
VOLUNTEER/INTERN ABROAD
Volunteer your time and skills to help those in need. You can make a difference in the lives of the people you meet, and they will certainly make a difference in yours! Strengthen your professional and interpersonal skills while you explore the world. Positions and projects vary depending on field of interest. Projects range from advertising to social services and are available one week to one year. Foreign language and experience not required. Available in Asia, Africa, Australia, Europe, and Latin America.
HOSPITALITY WORK ABROAD
See the world, work with locals, enhance your resume, gain a new perspective on life, and make money while you are at it! Work in the hospitality/service industry of Australia, England & France. Salary, room & board pre-arranged with traveler’s insurance and local support.
LEARN A CULTURAL ACTIVITY
Communication between cultures is the key to a deeper global understanding. What better way is there to learn and speak a foreign language, than in the native country? Program length and levels are organized to fit your needs around the globe. We also pre-arrange arts, crafts, culinary, dance and music lessons from talented locals!
GROUP TRAVEL
Cultural Embrace organizes the logistics of tours, specializing in cultural, educational, and humanitarian aspects of a destination. As a group, we are able to negotiate the best rates in the industry and pass the savings on to you.
