Are any of the following questions worrying you?
Never been to France or Germany? Then this is the ideal way to find out about the two countries: You have the support and protection of a large group going with you. All the bookings are taken care of - you just turn up.
Don't speak French or German? You don't have to, as many of the French and Germans speak English, and you will soon pick up some survival language! Many of the Callington twinners are excellent linguists and will always help you out.
Uneasy About staying in someone's home? You don't have to be as we try and match you up with a similar family/age group etc. Remember, if they weren't nice, outgoing people, they wouldn't be offering you a bed in their home!
Bit short of money? No problem, apart from the discounted ferry fare, if you stay with a French or German family then all you need is a small gift for your hosts - and you may like to treat them to the odd drink or ice-cream to say "thank you". Everything else is paid for, including all your food and entertainment.
Not much room at home? It is not necessary to host in order to join and take part. All we ask is that you support our fund-raising events throughout the year. We can often help out with hosting, so just ask!
A bit shy, or on your own? We are a friendly lot who welcome individuals and families of all ages, as well as groups, societies and associations to join us. We have regular social or fundraising events which give you the opportunity to meet our members and make friends.
Run out of reasons not to join? Then why not get in touch with us? Phone Sue on 01579 382705 or get in touch with any committee member (click here to find their contact details) and have a chat. You can always contact us by email by clicking here.
