In the house of this host family there are two bedrooms with private bathrooms available. Both bedrooms include a queen-sized bed, a nightstand and a closet, and are also suitable for couples. The bathrooms are both equipped with a shower. In the big living room there is a lot of space for the students to hang out. They can relax on the sofas and do their homework on the dining table. In the kitchen there is a washer and dryer available, but the clothes can also be air-dried in the back yard.
The host family consists out of four members: María, her two daughters Tamara and Valeria, and her granddaughter Marina who is nine years old and goes to school. Tamara is studying Tourism and Environment, and Valeria is studying Cinema and Television. Another family member is their small and adorable dog called Neo José. He is a special breed that doesn’t lose fur, and therefore he won’t be a problem for people with allergies. The family isn’t vegetarian, but vegetarian meals are possible if communicated in advance. Smoking is allowed outside in the back yard.
The house is located in a quiet but very central and safe neighborhood. It has a good transport connection, and everything that you need is around, like a shopping mall, a supermarket, parks, and much more. It doesn’t take long to go to the historic center, and it’s also just a short hop from the house to the northern part of the city where bigger shopping centers can be found. Also, the party district “La Mariscal” is closeby. There are two parks near the house, on one side “Parque de la Mujer”, and on the other side “Parque la Carolina” which are perfect for taking walks, playing sports, studying and hanging out with friends. With the Trole-bus it takes about 15-20 minutes to reach school.
