In the following years she traveled and worked in the beautiful country in Central America in many stays. Through the many visits on site, she knows what it means to start young in a new culture and language. Today we use this knowledge to help young people have a wonderful stay in Costa Rica. Under the motto "Travel not only as a tourist - be a part of it" we would like to show YOU Costa Rica in a very special way. Immerse yourself in the local life and live like a Tica/Tico.

You will stay with a host family where you will usually have your own room and live in a great environment. Our locations are inland and on the coast, from where it is not far to the beach. In the host family you will receive all your meals and they will do your laundry. You will be integrated into the family in all activities and we will primarily look for families with host siblings of similar age to you. This way you will have a good start in your new life from the first day.
