Students may choose to stay with an Ecuadorian host family, at a cost of $ 20/day that covers room, food and laundry (this cost is in addition to the fee paid to Cinterandes). These arrangements provide a good opportunity to practice Spanish and participate in the traditions and culture of Ecuadorian family life.
Students who prefer more independence can stay in a hotel. There are several affordable, safe, and clean locations starting at around $ 12/day. All this information can be found online.
