I think this company implements one of the most brilliant ideas ever. Situated near Bemidji, Minnesota, Concordia Language Villages offers camps for language and cultural immersion for youth, adults, and families. Each of their villages is tailored to look and feel like their respective cultures.
They offer programs to learn Arabic, Chinese, Danish, Finnish, French, German, Italian, Japanese, Korean, Norwegian, Portuguese, Russian, Spanish, and Swedish. Imagine being immersed in a language and culture without leaving the country! By visiting these micro-cultures, you have a convenient opportunity to better understand the traditions of a country, prepare for an upcoming trip, or just step a little outside of your comfort zone.
