New Podcast Episode Out Now! A Journey That Starts But Never Ends

“An AFS journey starts but it never ends! In fact, I would have never imagined that one day I would have come back to the U.S., especially in New York, study at an American University and work as an intern for AFS-USA for a couple of months, but here I am, as a proof that your AFS exchange is really a life-changing experience!” – Tommaso (Italy to US, 2018).

In this new podcast episode, Sarah Radermacher and Tommaso Casavecchi share how their lives have been profoundly shaped by AFS. Discover how AFS fosters a lifelong connection to global citizenship and hear firsthand accounts of personal and professional growth.

Sarah has been a host sister to a girl from Brazil, a Peace Corps volunteer in Moldova, and an AFS staff member. Tommaso from Florence, Italy started as an AFS exchange student in Houston, then became an AFS volunteer after his program. He is currently back in the US, interning at AFS-USA. These stories exemplify the lasting impact of cultural exchange. This is the #AFSeffect!
