I think it's great to be in a host family because you just get to know the culture much
better and you always have someone to talk to.
We connected by email at first and it was really nice because I had so many questions.
When I first met the family at the airport they were just so nice, and gentle to me.
And there was this little boy and he was so cute.
And we just get along really well and that was really nice.
If there's a lot to do at school I first study a little and then we go out in the garden. We eat something together.
There are so many benefits when you speak English at home because you improve
your language really well. You don't only listen; you are also able to speak which means
that you get really new vocabulary not only in school, like, business for example.
We've been hosting for about seven years and we've hosted almost 40 students.
It makes us grateful for what we have. We're so fortunate to live in a really wonderful place and so every time
we host a new student and we introduce them, you know, to our wonderful city and our wonderful
country we get to see it through their eyes all over again. And I think it helps us to
continue to be better people.
