Live in the home of carefully selected hosts/families.
A wonderful opportunity to get to know local people, customs, enjoy regional cooking, explore less traveled parts of a country, practice foreign language skills, ad infinitum.

We created this program for Adults because many people are tired of seeing a foreign country from the windows of a tour bus, staying at impersonal hotels, eating in restaurants and not meeting local people.

We also created it because many of our former language students wanted the opportunity to practice their foreign language skills, but did not always want to return to study; they need a break from formal instruction.

We also have the program especially for Teens because many are mature enough to appreciate the opportunity to explore another culture.

You are matched with hosts who share similar interests. You learn more about a country when you do things that interest you: sports, visit gardens, play golf, explore castles, go hiking, eat at places only locals know about… before they make the guidebooks.

The 2 versions of the program.
See each one for further details.

• All Ages (including Children & Teens). Available in over 35 countries. You always get the country of choice. If there are different regions available, you will get a choice of regions. You will almost always get the region of choice. There is an Optional Activity / Excursions Program.
  
  
• Children & Teens Only. Stay with carefully selected host families who have children of the same age of the student. Share the daily life of the host family. Activities and local excursions. Offered in a limited number of countries. Students must speak the language of the selected country. Students are guaranteed the country of choice but not the region of choice.
  

You must go into this program looking to appreciate the differences, not looking for things to be the way they are at home.
