Optional Family Stay

A note about family stay in general:  The month of July is the month where hundreds of students from Europe and the United States converge to study in the numerous language schools in Salamanca.  The demand for student housing with families during this time is enormous.  Therefore, students may encounter families where both parents work, or where there is only one adult in the home.  Since many of the families make their homes available for income purposes, they rent every room available. 

About our families:  We make every effort to find the best homes for our participants.  Most of the families we choose have provided housing for students for many years.  They are the same type of family other schools and universities in Salamanca provide.  However, students should be aware that times have changed. The changes families in the U.S. have experienced are the changes taking place in Spain - one parent families, or both parents working are becoming common occurrences. 

Family accommodations are based on double occupancy. The student can expect middle income homes providing the essential needs. The diet is Spanish food. Breakfast is light consisting of coffee and bread/pastry. Lunch is the main meal of the day and dinner is light. Because most of the cities and towns in Spain are centuries old, almost all the people live in "pisos" (apartments).   The families are 10 to 35 minutes walking distance from the center of town. Families provide laundry service optionally.

You will receive the name and telephone number of your family about 2 weeks prior to departure.
