Programs FAQ
Can I combine tracks across two weeks?
Yes. The most common combination is Taste + Think — you eat well and argue better by the end. Move + Taste also works if you want to earn your Michelin dinner.
What level of French do I need?
Any level. The programme adapts entirely to where you are — complete beginner to advanced. The track is about what you do, not where you start.
Is the week schedule fixed?
It's a guide, not a contract. If Tuesday's vineyard trip becomes Wednesday because the weather is better — that's fine. Immersion is flexible by design.
Can I choose a track and then change it once I arrive?
Tell me before day two and we'll adjust. The track shapes the planning, but you're not locked in.
What's the difference between the tracks in terms of language learning?
None, really — all three produce the same immersive result. The track changes the vocabulary you acquire and the contexts you practice in. A Taste week gives you gastronomy and social French. A Think week gives you debate and cultural French. Move gives you practical and spontaneous French under physical pressure (which, it turns out, works well).
