Each student stays with one Balinese family. The student has his/her own room to study and to sleep. They go to the program center by walking because the homestays are very close to the program center. If there is/are any religious ceremonies, usually the students are invited to join in. This is the picture of a family ritual at their house temple where the student joined the ceremony and recieved holy water from her homestay father.

During the homestay period, the students study Indonesian language 3 hours in the morning and continued with the thematic seminars which conducted in the classroom at the program center but sometimes we have to go to the place where the local experts deliver their talks.


Homestay Period (around 8 weeks)

After 10 days orientation in the Palace in Kerambitan, then the students find their own way to the program center in Bedulu. There is a sign in front of the gate to make it easier to find it.
