Food may be seasonal and limited in variety, and there are other daily hardships that Russians endure. Interns must be prepared for these conditions. We prefer college students who are at least 20 years old or who will turn 20 by the end of the summer. High School-aged interns will be placed with our most trusted families and may be included with another school exchange. We can accept both nonRussian and Russian speakers.
Russian speakers have more latitude for placements.
Where possible, nonRussian speakers will be teamed together to work with an interpreter. You should accept local conditions and be eager to learn from your hosts. We try to match your skills to potential hosts who request interns. Conducted numerous workshops at our summer Youth Conference. We know that our internships are appreciated.
