“Hospitality is the poetry of life.” – Wolfgang Vorländer
Hospitality is very important to us! We’d be happy to arrange a host family for you, if possible. A contest participant and one adult chaperone can stay there free of charge, including breakfast. Transportation to the Casals Forum will be provided via public transit or—if public transit connections are inconvenient—through private rides arranged by us.
Upon admission, you will receive a form via email in which you can indicate your preference for a host family.
