Whatever language you are studying, there is no doubt that the best way to learn is to go to the country where the language is actually spoken and immerse yourself completely.

One of Workaway.info´s main objectives is to faciltate contact between possible host families and students.

We feel that the many advantages of living with a host family far outweigh the alternatives.

• The biggest advantage, of course, is the economic one. No agents to pay, no host families to pay and no school fees!
• In our experience Workawayers learn more staying and working with a host family than they do in a 4 week course at a language school. They are not put into a class of students with the same mother tongue and they have the opportunity to mix directly with with native speakers of the country of their choice.
• They have a reason to communicate. Working with somebody is often the best way to start conversations and help expand your vocabulary.
• They get to choose their own host family. Just by looking at our host list and emailing the families or organisations that interest them the most.
