OCTOBER
1 Week• 3/10 – 8/10
What’s included?
- A Welcoming dinner on the day of the arrival, Sunday, at a traditional Greek taverna. Lets meet up and chat!
- Two hour morning lessons (with a 10min break) from Monday till Friday with a certified Greek language tutor, native in Greek. After the lesson you have the opportunity, both to practice with native speakers, in real life situations what you have learned in class and lots of free time to enjoy yourself with your family and friends. After all, you are on holidays in Paros, right?
- All the material for the lessons
- Coffee or tea during breaks (biscuits included!)
- A guided tour. Get to know a Greek mainland city. Learn historical and cultural details of the life through its urban landscape and not only. The history of Volos is rich and starts from prehistoric times and continues through Mycenaean, classical as well as ottoman and modern. Volos is also at the centre of the myth of the Argonaut expedition. It was from here that the ship Argo set off with Jason and the Argonauts for Colchis in the Black Sea to claim the Golden Fleece.
- A walk in nature in mountain Peilio, the perfect way one can take in the magic of the mountain’s atmosphere and explore hidden gems of unique beauty. Don’t forget that this is the mountain that was chosen by the Gods of Olympus as their summer residence as well as the home of the mythical creatures, the Centaurs.
Depending on your stamina and taste, we can choose the hike route that fits you best. - 2 Traditional Greek dance lessons. “Be a Greek” means also to dance like a Greek!
- Cooking with languages! A cooking lesson, on Saturday preparing a traditional Greek recipe, and using the language, communicating with the fellow students-chefs, having fun, and sharing a fantastic home made meal together!
- Surprise send-off gifts
- And many many smiles!
- One more week of the morning language lessons to take your Greek to the next level!
- A wine tasting experience of greek wines and spirits at a local winery!
- A walk visiting south Pelio.
- Two more Greek dance lessons
- An all day boat trip! Swimming, snorkeling, music, including food and drinks!
