Meals

Breakfast, lunch and dinner are provided as part of the home stay.

We hope you will approach your meals - and all other aspects of the culture in which you will be immersed - with an open mind.

Please let us know when you apply for this program if you have special dietary needs as well as any physical or medical conditions. We will advise you accordingly.

Excursions

This program includes several excursions as part of its curriculum. A schedule of excursions will be available at a later date.

Free time is built into this program for independent sightseeing. If you plan on traveling extensively, we recommend that you budget additional spending money.
