Spend your summer in Mongolia and dive into a unique adventure unlike anywhere else in the world. Over six weeks, you’ll live with a traditional Mongolian family—often in a “ger” (yurt)—and experience the nomadic lifestyle firsthand. Summer is festival season, with vibrant celebrations, open skies, and endless steppe landscapes. You might take part in the famous Naadam Festival, celebrating Mongolian culture through wrestling, horse racing, and archery.

Days could be filled with horseback riding across vast grasslands, hiking in the Altai Mountains, or exploring ancient monasteries. You’ll taste authentic Mongolian cuisine such as steamed dumplings and fried meat pies and learn about the country’s deep connection to nature. This immersive summer exchange program offers a rare blend of cultural discovery, outdoor adventure, and personal growth in one of Asia’s last great frontiers.
