Leisure time

San Francisco is the ideal starting point for interesting excursions.

Furthermore, the school offers activities during the week: visits to the theater, cinema or musicals, going to baseball games, sports afternoons, barbeques and much more. San Francisco has countless bars, pubs and discos - indeed the night never ends...
How about sports? Cycling or inline skating in Golden Gate Park sounds very appealing. Or do you love volleyball, football, fitness and swimming? There are many possiblities open to you.
