Lunch is provided in work-days in a restaurant with buffet. Breakfast and dinner are in your host family. They'll provide you itens for cook or maybe they can cook for you too.

In the host family you will have internet acess too.

In our city you can visit a lot of parks and next here there are waterfalls, we have "vale dos vinhedos", a famous place. And we are next to Gramado, Canela and Nova Petropolis. In front of the school there is a bus stop where you can go to Caxias do Sul (a big city) and also many places as I mentioned above.
Our city is small, so, the transport is very easy.

Saskia was such a sweet and kind person! She has a very warm energy, is easy to be around, and quickly became part of our routine. She also introduced us to a great coffee, and of course, she completely fell in love with passion fruit Snickers hehe.
We’re really grateful for the time we shared and would happily host her again. Highly recommended!
