I’m happy to present to you all Beatrice and Paola, two Italian language teachers that live in Lecco on Lake Como.

Beatrice & Paola’s Homestay on Lake Como in Lecco. Beatrice and Paola are Italian teachers who met in 2005 while teaching at the same Italian language school for foreigners. They have teamed up to provide students with a unique Homestay language vacation on Lake Come in their hometown of Lecco.

Where is Lecco? The Lario lake, also known as Lake Como, has the shape of an inverted Y. At one end of the Y branch is the city of Como, and on the other end lies Lecco. The city of Lecco is located directly on the lake, and right at the feet of the mountains.

The Lecco side of the lake is the perfect destination also for people who love sports (windsurf, sailing, paragliding, and climbing). The two teachers combine their teaching skills and love for the Italian language to provide you with an immersive language experience that is extensive, dynamic, and complete.

It is interesting to know that Lecco is featured in the famous novel by Alessandro Manzoni “I promessi sposi” (The Betrothed), and the neighborhood where they will host you is entirely dedicated to the story of the novel. In the surroundings, there are many typical taverns and restaurants.

Just a note: Beatrice’s house is situated a little above Lecco in the hills and so going down is easy, but walking back up the hill takes a bit more energy, especially in the summer. It is possible to rent electric bikes in Lecco.
