First Step World (La Ceiba) -- Language Culture Immersion!

  Honduras

La Ceiba

Term: Throughout the year 

Description: La Ceiba, named for an oversized Ceiba tree on the beach that provided shade for dock workers, goes beyond its history as a port city. The laziness of the beach coupled with the full-fire energy of eco-tourism attractions and a wild nightlife scene make Honduras' third largest city perhaps the country's most vivacious. With its international mix of inhabitants, the local culture melds Latin, Caribbean and Afro-Antillean influences.

- 4 hours daily classes (20 hrs/week)
- Small group or individual instruction
