Highly recommend to anyone looking for an opportunity to explore and immerse themselves in a new countey

I applied to do a programme with Gotoco in February 2024 and by June I travelled out to Italy for three weeks, during which I had the most incredible time. The people I met were so friendly and kind and I intend to remain friends with some of them; the places I got to see will forever remain in my memory; and above all the chance to experience the culture during that time are all parts of what made it such a valuable experience. A short programme like mine is ideal for anyone trying this for the first time, it allowed me to get a feel for the experience without being thrown in the deep end. Following this, if I have the time, I plan to do a longer programme with Gotoco next summer. I could not recommend it enough.

I had no issues with the accommodation or food during my stay, everything is handled with care by Gotoco and the partner organisations. They were also very helpful when responding to queries during the application.
