Answer 1

I like less touristy areas and it's always great when I can stay with a local family for a budget price.

Answer 3

I stayed witrh a host family while recently in Argentina and the first three days I stayed in a hostel for the first time. It was cheap and clean. I didn't expect the hostel to be so clean and tidy. It was a good choice!! The home stay was wonderful for my Spanish learning.

Answer 4

The first time in a new country, I like to spend some time at a hotel similar to my home and some time at a small, local place.

Answer 5

"Home stay" and "Farm stay" are terrific and they are global. But never never stay with relatives ,it is just a "Yack fest" .

,and....never, never....relatives; - don't want to confuse English learners about punctuation! ;-) - AKgal, Apr 14, 2010
