At first you can notice no connection between the language vacation and summer house. But still knowing a foreign language becomes an everyday necessity and very important in working life. Nowadays it is hardly possible to find a job where you will not need knowing the English language. It is presupposed that you know the English language when you are working in a university or any other public institution. Or you have several jobs because of Globalization and international teams with co-workers of enterprises and institutions that make it necessary to know a foreign language. It is really difficult to solve economic problems of the modern world without knowing a foreign language. The school and university courses can hardly be as interesting and effective as language vacation. And of course, you'll not only get much pleasure from your vacation but learn a foreign language, too. 

Language vacation is often offered to young people during their vacation time. But there are many languages courses for adults that are usually paid by the employer. Such courses become more and more popular nowadays.

E.g. if you get pleasure from learning English, then there are many interesting variants for you.
