EXPERIENCED AND PREPARED
Many of our host families have hosted exchange students before, so they are very
familiar with our exchange programme and able to make you feel comfortable right
away. Some of them host a student every year and talk about their ‘sons and daughters’
around the world. We also ensure that host families are well prepared before you arrive.
From the everyday routines to special occasions, living with a host family will give you a
unique insight into life in your chosen destination and mean that you gain another family
across the world with whom you will keep in touch with for years to come.
Your host family will be your main support while you are on exchange, helping you
integrate into their family and wider community. They will also be excited to learn all
about your family and lifestyle back home.
