Home Stay

Two 20 year old girls, will be staying in Barcelona from May 22nd until mid June. We are looking for the cheapest, safe place to stay in Barcelona……where should I look? Are homestays expensive? Where do I find those?

Twizi.com lists places to stay for less than 25 dollars a night all over the world. Their Barcelona page is really great and has lots of options for any budget traveler.
The link below goes to their Barcelona page.

I am thinking of doing a study abroad program. The school is in Hato Rey and the homestays are withing walking distance. I would like to know the type of area and if it is safe.

Its not necessarily the safest place on earth. Make sure you keep a low profile.

Take a look around a Wayanad Homestay and the surrounding area.

Ensconced in a particularly beautiful corner of Wayanad, about 25 kilometers from Sulthan Bathery, this homestay which is set right in the middle of a 140- acre coffee plantation has been aptly named Coffee Vista – one gets spectacular views of the coffee bushes, as far as the eye can see.

I am going to Tokyo, Tome, Kyoto, Nara, Hiroshima, and Yanagawa. So far, I want to go to Harajuku, Puroland (Sanrio themepark in Tokyo), and… thats about it! Can you tell me some things I should do? (foods to try, places to go, shopping districts, ect.) I don’t need to much to do for Nara and Hiroshima, because my school is doing a big planned tour for that, but I need to find some interesting things to ask my homestays to take me to in Tokyo, Yanagawa, and Tome. (Tome is a fairly small town, its in the country, and I doubt you’ll find interesting things to do there, hahaha.)

If you’ve been to Disney Land before, you should go to Tokyo Disney Land and Disney sea . there are many differences between here and Japanese Disney. I’m sure you’ll like Japanese one rather than America.
You also should go to Tokyo tower!

I’ve wanted to spend a summer in Ireland for a while. I will be finishing up my freshman year this May. I’ve done some research and found something called homestays. I really want to spend a summer in Ireland, and looking ahead this is the only summer I can do it for my highschool career. Is it too late? What can I do to have this dream of mine come true? Thanks in advance.
