We live in a central location near the airport. The bus stop is half a block from our house that can take you downtown in about 30 minutes so you can explore downtown San Antonio. There is a strong Mexican influence so you will have lots of opportunities to practice your conversational Spanish. San Antonio is all about: the Alamo, the River Walk, the Missions, cowboy boots, rodeos and Mexican food! You can visit SeaWorld park, Six Flags Fiesta theme park, The Alamo World Heritage Site, the Institute of Texas Cultures and more. There are also a number of outdoor and indoor shopping malls with restaurants and bars nearby. The newest culinary and cultural destination, The Pearl District, hosts a dynamic mix of craft breweries and restaurants. You could also visit Austin, the Texas Capital, less than 2 hours away. We occasionally go hiking and camping and you are welcome to join us.
