Accommodation

Host family
Living with a host family is certainly the best way to get to know the common expressions and to put into practise what you have learned in class. This option will also allow you to discover the local culture, to share meals (breakfast and dinner) with a family experienced in welcoming foreign students, and to get a taste of the local hospitality. You will stay in a single room.
