 You
can choose from a room with breakfast, half-board (breakfast and
you can choose between a cooked meal in the afternoon at about
two o'clock or light dinner at ten) or full-board (breakfast and
two meals). It is obvious that you will have to adjust a little
to the rules of the house. Remember, too, that locals have different
eating habits. Apart from that, you are free to do what you want.
You will be given your own keys, so you can come and go as you
please. During your home-stay you will be able to receive phone
calls.
 It
is good to know that most of the host families have worked with
us sincethe beginning. The families know from experience what
the role of a host is. Accommodation in a host family allows you
to get the maximum out of your course. Nowhere else will you so
directly experience real Spanish life. Nothing could be better
to help improve your language skills. The word "family'"
should not be taken too literally, because your family could also
be just a single parent who takes in students because he or she
enjoys the company. You wouldn't be the first to go out together,
or to keep in contact with the family after your return home.
The student flats are
not very luxurious but they have all the basic facilities (a bed,
table, chair and a wardrobe). Each student flat has a living room
with TV, a fully equipped kitchen, a washing machine and iron.
In student flats there are no telephones available. You can make
your phone calls from one of the many phone boxes. You share the
kitchen and the bathroom and, together, keep the house clean.
Shared areas are cleaned once a week. |
