This was the most valuable and wonderful experience our family has ever done! The only regret I have is not doing it sooner!

Shapiro-Bulichi Family/Redwood City (2006-7)

It was wonderful to get a glimpse into other cultures and to share ours and to hear their view of our culture.

Fran Calden/Berkeley (2007)

Our family enjoyed having Ane stay with us. We were able to get a sense of just how her life is in Northern Spain, and the kids could show her their lifestyle here in Danville. We'll definitely host another student in the future!

Elizabeth Patton/Danville (2007)

It was so much fun having our student in our home and I think we all benefited from the experience.

Tanya Drlik/Berkeley (2007)

Our family felt is was very worthwhile for all of us. Kathi was very compatible and we enjoyed that she was the same age as our kids. Kathi was well behaved, respectful, and helpful, which was important to us.

Lucy LaPier/Palo Alto (2007)

Both of my daughters benefited from interacting with Verena and all the kids.

Mary Brickley/Piedmont (2007)

We had a wonderful student, Claire, stay with us.

Cori Bertuccio/ Lafayette (2007)

It is always interesting to meet people from other cultures.

Tammy Snyder/Palo Alto (2007)

Our children enjoyed the experience and were enlightened by the perspective of other parts of the world…it showed them how much the world has to offer.

Benson Family/Danville (2006)

We really enjoyed our student and wished there could have been more time. We established a relationship with the parents as well and hope to visit.

Tillis/Baker Family/Pleasanton (2006)

Our family plans to visit next summer. We have made a friend for life.

Becker Family/Burlingame (2006)

It is amazing how quickly a complete stranger can become a part of your family.

It was a fantastic experience for the entire family. We thoroughly enjoyed the experience and feel fortunate we were able to participate.
