About Program
From the famous beaches and resorts of the Gold Coast to the beautiful islands found just off the shores of Queensland, Brisbane is in the perfect location for any adventurer with a desire to travel. The warm summers and clear mild winters make Brisbane the ideal destination for participants all year long.
Brisbane offers unique organizations, like the Pet Welfare Foundation or a School for meditation and yoga. Whether you want to protect something that can’t protect itself or help people with mental disabilities live their lives independently, Brisbane has it all.
