What is an MSLS homestay like?
MSLS homestay families are generally middle-class, well known by the school and have experience hosting students. MSLS Homestays have to meet standards of cleanliness and security. They have indoor plumbing and tiled floors. You will have a private room that you can lock, but most students feel secure with their family from the start. Laundry service is available or you can do your own at the “pila”. Nicaraguan families are very hospitable by nature and the whole family willingly engages the students and welcomes them into their home. If you have any special dietary or personal preferences, they can usually be accommodated. MSLS students are usually overwhelmed by the warmth of Nicaraguan hospitality. However, you can request to change homestays after you are placed if you have a problem with a particular setting.
