Spain: Stay One Week for FREE!

August 2, 2008 · Filed Under Accommodations, Europe, Free Travel, volunteer travel · Comment 

How does a FREE one-week stay in a rural 4-star resort in Spain, including three meals a day, sound?  Too good to be true?  Guess again.  It’s true!  Okay; there IS one catch.  You can only speak English there!

Pueblo Ingles is an immersion English language program to help Spaniards improve their English; and native English speakers are sought to take part in activities such as one-to-one conversations, group activities and games, mock conference calls, and entertaining theatre skits and presentations.
