Preface

Good afternoon, dear Work and Travel participants. My name is Alexander. I participated in the Work and Travel program twice: the first time in the East, and the second in the West. Both times were fulfilling and vibrant; both times I kept them in my memory and heart.

Until recently, I ran my own e-magazine, "Work and Travel Youth," where I shared interesting stories and gave advice to future participants. Unfortunately, I had to stop running the magazine due to a lack of time. But the articles filled with useful and engaging information remain, so with your permission, I would like to present them here.

I am sure that by reading them, you will find something useful for yourself and your friends! Let's go!
