'Commercial' Gliding 'schools' in Europe

Hi all,

I'm a member of a local gliding club and love it so far! During my holidays I want to go flying too, but maybe in a different environment. I don't have my GPL licence (or LAPL or whatever) yet, but have quite some expierence flying solo (and will build much more this summer. Also already taking all the theory exams for the licence). Now as I'd go somewhere for a week, i was wondering where in Europe I can find any commercial schools paying 'as you go'. I know gliding in a club is way different and procedures might be different then in my local gliding club (so I don't know if it's THAT a good idea to go fly somewhere else). I could always use some excercises to get my licence or some first cross country expierence with an instructor (would learn alot).
Has anyone expierence in 'schools' like these?

Thanks and fly safe!
