DISCOVER NEW ZEALAND AND THE FIJI ISLANDS THROUGH A CULTURAL EXCHANGE SERVICE ADVENTURE!

The South Pacific is one of our planet’s most diverse and beautiful environments, and your home for four exciting weeks of service, culture and adventure! Meaningful projects, incredibly friendly people, and world class SCUBA diving are just a few of the reasons why this program has been so successful. New Zealand is a country of rare seismic beauty complete with glacial mountains, fast-flowing rivers, crystal clear lakes, abundant forest reserves, and long, deserted beaches. Our two and a half week stay in New Zealand will take place in the temperate North Island. Fiji, with over 300 islands in its archipelago, is a true paradise in the Pacific. The New Zealand/Fiji program combines meaningful environmental and community service projects, cultural exchange, beautiful surroundings, and fun, exciting adventure activities in two countries.

My Global Works experience was amazing. I made lifelong friends and tried countless new things. 

Emma Loebel, New Zealand/ Fiji Participant

My favorite part was the homestay in Fiji, to choose just one. I loved being immersed in the culture in an authentic way that I’ve never experienced on any other trip. After a few days, I no longer felt like a guest, I felt like family.

Samantha Schafer, New Zealand/ Fiji Participant

One of the best summers of my life. I’m sure I will never forget a day of it!

Nicole Brown, New Zealand/ Fiji Participant
