Accommodation

Host family
There are a thousand and one ways of assimilating the culture of a country and certainly one of the most enriching of these is staying with a host family. Our partner school carefully selects families so that you will feel as much at ease as possible. In principal, you will have your own room and will have to share the bathroom with your host family. You will have half-board and will be able to do your laundry once a week. However, if you so wish, you will be able to share your bedroom with a friend (in which case, the booking must be made for the two people at the same time). The families are located around 25 - 45 minutes away from the school by public transport.
