Portugal

A 3- to 9-month internship in an exceptional house, housing and meals commonly included, between Lisbon and the Algarve cliffs. You live the country from within, and we take care of the rest.

Why Portugal

A country that welcomes like no other.

Welcome as second nature

Hosting here is not a technique, it is a way of being. You learn the craft alongside teams who welcome with genuine warmth.

Cities lived in the open air

Lisbon's miradouros, painted azulejos, evening light on the Tagus. The scenery changes at every street corner.

The gentle everyday

A pastel de nata at the counter, the ocean within weekend reach. Life here is simple, generous and sunlit.

Teams from everywhere

From Lisbon's palaces to Algarve resorts, the brigades are international. Your English sharpens without you even noticing.
