Spanish life is much more than beaches, sunshine, and flamenco. By immersing yourself in a Spanish family, you’ll discover a lifestyle that is uniquely different from other countries.
School often starts early and finishes by early afternoon. Lunch is typically served around 3:00 PM, and dinner can be as late as 10:00 PM. In between, your days will be filled with schoolwork and after-school activities.
Weekends and holidays are dedicated to family time, often marked by large, lively family meals. Spanish people truly value social interactions and know how to enjoy life together!
Living with a host family and attending school will immerse you completely in the Spanish language. The biggest challenge is mastering the correct pronunciation and stressing syllables properly to make yourself understood.
You’ll learn practical, everyday Spanish, picking up the correct intonations quickly. Within a few weeks, you’ll be able to understand conversations and begin expressing yourself. After six months, with effort and practice, you’ll speak Spanish almost as fluently as a native!
Spain boasts a rich and diverse cultural heritage—history, architecture, literature, cinema, and much more. Culture is deeply valued in Spain, and you’ll feel this everywhere you go.
