porque
viajamos

Viaje o mundo. Seja bem-vindo na casa de alguém. Mergulhe na cultura local. Convide viajantes de outros lugares para sua própria casa e compartilhe sua cultura com eles.

Desde 1977, o movimento de intercâmbio de viagens iniciado pela Friendship Force International deu às pessoas a oportunidade única de se conectar de maneiras que transcendem as fronteiras para promover boa vontade, respeito e compreensão.

Esse tipo de experiência íntima e transformadora pode não ser para todos, mas para milhares de membros da Friendship Force em todo o mundo, os relacionamentos pessoais que estabelecemos são uma maneira poderosa e autêntica de impactar mudanças positivas e gerar empatia em todo o mundo.

“Faço parte da Friendship Force há mais de 20 anos. Sem perceber, minha rede cresceu e nos mudou muito de muitas maneiras…novas famílias e amigos ao redor do mundo. Impagável.”

George Dorgebetor

Volta Lake, Ghana

“I could not wait to have my first experience with Friendship Force. It’s expanded my horizons. Living to understand each other is golden. Friendship Force is a family with a true spirit of volunteerism and love for peace.”

Suzanne Duquesne

Noumea, New Calendonia

“I heard about Friendship Force through friends in 2004. I had just retired. I’ve always enjoyed travelling; I like the idea of meeting people from different countries, getting to know each other through hosting, visiting, sharing, experiencing different cultures. That’s what Friendship Force is all about.”

Pallie Savoie

Kentucky, USA

“Friendship Force taught me from a young age that there are people from different places all over the world who live very different lives than my own but who tell amazing stories. My favorite memory is of a visitor from Canada who explained how during the winter, he commuted to work by ice skating down canals. I thought it was the most magical thing I’d ever heard.”

Jaap Schouten

Ottawa, Canada

“Afterward, most of us spoke of what we had seen in Moscow. But Claudette, who has been blind since her teenage years, spoke eloquently about what she had heard, smelled, and felt during her week with her Russian hosts. It was a spell-binding experience. To this day, I regret not having recorded it. Later, Claudette led us in hosting a group from Bogota, Colombia.”

Vivian Avila

San Jose, Costa Rica

“It was a very enriching experience because we learned firsthand about the division of Germany during the Second World War. Our host didn’t speak Spanish, and likewise, I don’t speak German. The language barrier wasn’t a problem for us – we were still able to communicate and understand Ann’s experiences during the 28 years of the Berlin Wall. A conventional trip would never have allowed us to learn so much. That is what Friendship Force is all about.”

Alain Siebenbour

Toulouse, France

“My host welcomed me like family without even knowing me, gave me the keys to her house, told me her story of a British migrant almost forced to leave her country to settle in Australia. I still regularly receive news from her. This is how we create a network of friendship and fraternity, thanks to Friendship Force.”
