Jules has spent the past year living and learning in Nova Scotia, and he's made the most of every moment! From hiking coastal trails with Rotarians, to skiing with fellow students, cheering at Mooseheads games, and sharing his culture with youth from around the world — Jules’ exchange experience has been nothing short of extraordinary.
What is Rotary Youth Exchange?
Rotary Youth Exchange provides high school students aged 15-18 the opportunity to:
Attend school in another country
Live with local host families
Learn a new language and culture
Build international friendships
Serve as ambassadors for peace and understanding
It’s a life-changing experience — not just for the students, but also for the families, schools, and communities they become part of.
