LEARN SPANISH IN SPAIN THROUGH A LANGUAGE IMMERSION SERVICE ADVENTURE!

From Barcelona's Roman relics to Madrid's newfound modernity, Spain is a cultural marvel. On this journey, we will visit a side of Spain that most tourists will never have the chance to see. The sparkling blue waters of the Mediterranean enhance our adventure while the experience of living and working in a sustainable community provides our backdrop for meaningful service. During our homestay, we learn about the cultural and political changes Spain has seen over the past thirty years that have combined to create a modern, exuberant country coming into its own. In our travels through this diverse country, you will find that all Spaniards share an unparalleled zest for life.
