Small, remote school for nature-lover
Hello!
Just curious, does anyone know of any schools that are NOT in a big city, but rather in a small village or town? I love the idea of a slow, simple life, and would love to apply to such a school. For example, somewhere near the Alps where people spend the winter afternoons skiing, or on a remote island in Thailand (I am partial to Europe and Asia, but open to anything).
Ideally the school would be well-organized and offering good quality education.
Thanks!

There is a boarding school in Austria - remote, in a village. Not sure of the name.
Re: Small, remote school for nature-lover
Ecole d’Humanité in Switzerland, Carlsbad School in Czech Republic, and St. Gilgen International School in Austria.

I think the school SJ is thinking of is Leysin.
I also second the nomination of Woodstock in India. Always been on my radar with an absolutely stunning setting.

Scratch that, Leysin is Switzerland. Not sure of the one in Austria.

UWC Red Cross Nordic in Flekke, Norway is in a postcard-perfect location. Quite competitive, though.

Thank you for all your replies! : ) I'm excited to look into all of these schools.
