Accommodation

Host family
Staying with a host family provides you with an excellent opportunity to immerse yourself fully in the culture of the country. In this way, you will share in the daily life and experiences of your host family whilst practising your Italian in an authentic context. Living around 30 minutes away from the school, you will have your own bedroom and will share breakfast and the evening meal with your host family every day of the week.

Shared apartment (from 18 years)
Our partner school also offers accommodation in a shared apartment, Here, you will stay in a single room and share the common areas with your flatmates. It is a great opportunity to meet other international students, try out new Tuscan recipes, and share the unique experience of a language course in Siena with them.

Leisure

Speaking Italian outside of the school, in a social or cultural context, is a great way to develop the skills you have learned in class. That’s why each week our partner school offers students the chance to participate in outings, some free or at reduced prices, during the week and at the weekends, such as Italian cinema, public lectures and guided tours for discovering Siena’s secrets, excursions and olive oil, cheese and wine tastings, not to forget the nights out organised by the school and the parties on offer in Siena itself.
