Living Costa Rica (2 weeks Program)
A unique experience of language and adventure in Costa Rica
Our two weeks Living Costa Rica program is a unique introduction to Costa Rica culture, its friendly people and the natural beauty of National Parks and scenery.
The program is designed to integrate the learning of Spanish language through cultural immersion by living with a tico (Costa Rican) family, also by participating in real daily activities out of the beaten path, no other Spanish school or tourist program will get this close to what ticos are like.
Living Costa Rica gives our students the opportunity to develop a new perspective on the country they are visiting, at the same time that they are involved in fun, educational and culturally significant activities such as city and museum tours, going to out to hip local places and interacting with ticos, learning to dance local rhythms and visiting our world famous national parks.
