Bolivia: Cochabamba
Discover the secrets of the landlocked heart of South America. Behold the marvels of magically surreal salt flats, lofty cities perched on canyon sides and the juxtaposition of Amazonian and Andean landscapes. Bolivia has one of the most fascinating and varied cultures of the continent. The echoes of ancient civilizations resonate throughout the ruined cities, busy markets overflow with rainbow coloured textiles and chicken buses navigate their way along winding mountain roads. With such an abundance of experiences to offer, your time in Bolivia is sure to be unforgettable.
* What Will I Be Doing?
You will start your day with a traditional breakfast and then either squeeze in an extra few moments of relaxation or lend a helping hand to any of the work going on around the centre until lunch, when after a filling meal with the Bolivian staff you can begin your Spanish tuition. Classes last a minimum of 2 hours, during which time you will cover all aspects of the language. Finishing just in time for a delicious dinner you are then free for the evening, unless of course you are given homework in which case you may be studying hard back at your accommodation.
* Learn Spanish from the locals.
* A unique view of this mystical part of the world.
* Discover the local culture and delicacies!
