 A wonderful opportunity to get to know local people, customs, enjoy regional cooking, explore
less traveled parts of a country, practice foreign language skills, ad infinitum.

 We created this program for Adults because many people are tired of seeing a foreign country
from the windows of a tour bus, staying at impersonal hotels, eating in restaurants and not
meeting local people.

 We also created it because many of our former language students wanted the opportunity to
practice their foreign language skills, but did not always want to return to study; they need a
break from formal instruction and the classroom situation.

 We also have the cultural immersion program for Teens because many are mature enough to
appreciate the opportunity to explore another culture.

 You are matched with hosts who share similar interests. You learn more about a country when
you do things that interest you: sports, visit gardens, play golf, explore castles, go hiking, take
cooking lessons, eat at places only locals know about, play golf, visit local museums, .....

There are
3 versions of the program.
You must go into this program looking to appreciate the differences,
not looking for things to be the way they are at home.
See each one for further details.
