A good way to explore this field is to join one of your high school's foreign language clubs. In addition to using the foreign language, these clubs often have activities related to the culture or cultures where the language is spoken. You may also find it helpful to join your school's business club, which will give you an opportunity to learn about business tactics and finances, as well as give you an idea of how to run your own business.
Learn as much as you can about people and life in other parts of the world. You can do this by joining groups such as AFS (http://www.afsusa.org) and getting to know someone from another country who is attending your school. There are also study-abroad and living-aboard programs you can apply to even while in high school. Organizations such as Rotary International (https://www.rotary.org) and AFS offer these types of intercultural opportunities for students as well as adults.
