ITALIAN LANGUAGE: LEONARDO DA VINCI PROGRAM

Italian language courses for all levels: beginners, elementary, pre-intermediate, intermediate, specialization, and living together a Tuscan family of qualified teachers. You will live a full immersion experience in the heart of Tuscany, improving your knowledge not only of language but also of the Italian daily way of life. Your hosts will welcome you as old friends would, and they will offer you all their knowledge of the Italian language, traditions, culture, and other trivial curiosities.
The house you will live in is called "Le Mimose", this name comes from the big Mimosa trees that they have in their garden, you can just imagine the wonderful smell the whole area has in the spring!
The host's son loves nature and hiking, he knows many paths near the house that he can direct you to if you are interested in taking a walk toward Montalbano.
The whole family loves to cook, and they cook very well ! while living with them you will be given some precious hints and culinary secrets. Meals are included in the program and will be studied and decided with you so that they can meet your taste and any possible allergy or food intolerances. It is possible to ask for a live in language and cooking course, or even just a live in cooking course.
