Finding Your Way!
Posted by Pixelpat on Feb 2, 2008
Are you afraid of landing in a strange country and unsure of how to find your way?
A great solution is to enroll in a language school. There are options for attending anywhere from a week to several months.
The school we signed up with arranged for us to be picked up at the airport and taken to our home stay family.
This solved the problem of where to stay the first week and how to get there. The cost was very reasonable and included breakfast and supper as well as laundry service. Our hostess had owned a restaurant and spoiled us with delicious food.
The school arranged tours and other accommodation for us as well as helping us improve our Spanish. By the time we were in the country for a week we had many of our questions answered and felt ready to explore on our own.
We totally enjoyed staying with our new friends and recommend a home stay experience as a wonderful way of becoming acquainted with Costa Rican culture.
