Sample Itinerary
Weeks 1-4: Guatemala
Start in the quaint, colorful, and historically rich Antigua, Guatemala, where you’ll stay with your first host family and take 20-30 hours Spanish each week. Join optional language exchanges with local English learners and weekly cultural activities. Weekends are free for exploring!
Weeks 5-8: Costa Rica
Weeks 9-12: Spain
Continue your language-learning journey near the beach in Manuel Antonio, Costa Rica. By now, you’ll be more comfortable chatting in Spanish, but your lessons will continue throughout the weekdays with weekends to check out the best beaches and tropical rainforests!
Complete your adventure as a host family’s English tutor in Spain while improving your Spanish and picking up on a different dialect. Most host families are near Madrid, and you’ll have plenty of time for weekend trips to cities like Barcelona, Seville, and Granada.
International learning should be accessible to all students and youth. InterExchange is committed to helping you find a way to make it happen.
