friendship force cornwall

Who are we? Friendship Force Cornwall is just one of 356

Friendship Force Clubs active in 55 countries on six

continents. Under the guidance of Friendship Force International

in Atlanta Georgia, we learn about other people's

culture and experiences the only real way you can

and that is by sharing their roof and putting your feet

under their table. At first you may be hesitant,

especially if you aren't fluent in another language, but

it can be a great and rewarding experience to join in

their daily activities and specially planned events.

After making these special friendships and

exchanging cultures, your hosts will in turn want to

visit our club and learn more about us - much more

than can be found in a travel guide or on the Internet.

As other clubs around the world learn more about our

beautiful part of the world, they will also want to visit

us and we in turn will visit them, exchanging a world of experiences and friends that will last a

lifetime. How we do this is by club "exchanges," the heart of the Friendship Force organisation.

During a club exchange club members or "Ambassadors" visit a club as a group of about 15 to 25,

sharing in group travel costs and having the comfort of travelling with friends. One of the club

members serves as the Exchange Director, to make sure that everyone gets there and back without

a hitch. If you belong to a Friendship Force Club you can also join another club's exchange, if they are

going to a place you have always wanted to visit. You can search for a club on the Friendship Force

International site by clicking HERE You can also see a new video about the Friendship Force by clicking HERE You can see all current UK outgoing exchanges by looking at our Exchanges page, and find more

information on the new UK website HERE

One of our newer members, Harry, hosted incoming guests from Costa Rica recently. It was his first

experience of Friendship Force hosting and you can read the account of his experiences HERE
