The kibbutz ulpan provides the ulpanist with a wide, cross-cultural experience. Not only does the ulpanist get to experience the Israeli culture at first hand, but as today the majority of people attending kibbutz ulpan are from Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union as well as South America, Europe, etc., there is an exposure to people from other backgrounds and cultures.

Yes. In contrast to bella Italia where Italian rules, in Greece many many people speak English, especially those connected to the travel and tourism market.

The kibbutz provides the ulpanists with room and board, sheets, blankets, and pillows. Most of the kibbutzim are going through changes.

At some kibbutzim laundry services might be for an extra charge (kibbutz members have to pay for these services as well).

Much has been written about how a kibbutz is a social experiment or an economic unit. What tends to be forgotten is that a kibbutz is first and foremost the home of the people living there, the kibbutzniks. Therefore, it is expected that ulpanists will behave and dress in an appropriate manner. You definitely should not have any hesitation about asking your kibbutz supervisor if you have any questions about what is acceptable or unacceptable dress and/or behavior on your kibbutz.
