Living In Spain

 

Accomodation

Since living with a host family is a great way to improve your Spanish, all students reside with local families chosen by the Director. A family provides you with lots of practical advice and guidance and gives you an inside look at the culture. Great care is taken to ensure a good fit between you and your family and you can count on the Director's support as you learn to adapt to your new home.

Breakfasts and dinners with the host family are included in the cost of the program; lunches are not. All students will live in Barcelona proper and will have convenient access to reliable public transportation, day and night. El Casal provides bus and subway passes.
