Hi guys,
I am after some information regarding spanish schools in Spain.  I
want to be in Spain in March 2005 and learn Spanish at a language
school there for a period of three weeks.  I want to stay at a
homestay with a Spanish family - preferably with breakfast included -
and I want to do a minimum of four hours of classes a day.  My budget
for the three weeks including classes and homestay is 1000 euros.  I
would prefer either to be in Barcelona or somewhere regional and small
and not too touristy (from the sublime to the ridiculous, I know).  I
would like a recommendation for a decent school (preferably one that
has positive feedback from students) that is also
affordable.  Also, should I pay in advance or wait to pay when I get
there?  I would appreciate any help you could give me for this,
plus any tips you could pass on to a female-solo-first-time traveller
in Spain.  Thanks heaps,
Liana

Clarification of Question by elbuz-ga on 10 Nov 2004 00:29 PST

maybe my question is a tad over-ambitious . . .  What I really want to
find is a decent Spanish school in Barcelona that is a) open for
business in the first three weeks of March next year and b) may have
either a homestay option or, at least, assist in finding some kind of
accommodation.  Any kind of help you could give with this would be
greatly appreciated!
