Homestays & Local Immersion
For a truly immersive experience, homestays are a tried and true method. You are welcomed into someone's home and learn how a typical family operates day-to-day. It's a truly unique way to experience a country. You come away with a deeper appreciation as cultural subtleties reveal themselves in a way that is simply not possible when staying in a hotel or hostel.
