    Housing is provided throughout your entire stay on the internship in a homestay with a local Argentine family.

    Past participants laud the homestay as one of the most unexpectedly positive aspects of their internship — whether it’s because of your mamá’s authentic paella or the unique insight into the local way of living.

    During orientation you’ll share a room for the first few days with fellow interns but after that you’ll typically have your own single room with a private bathroom in your family’s home. On a few occasions previous interns have shared a room with a host brother or sister.

    You’ll spend time on weekends and evenings with your host family as part of the internship; it’s the ultimate way to have an authentic Argentine experience.

    Budget around 3 hours weekly to help your family learn English plus join in with fun family activities and excursions.
