Stay with a family for 1 to 3 months and help them with their conversational English
Experience the excitement of another country's culture for a couple of months on a budget!
Stay with a local family for 1 to 3 months and in exchange for spending 15 hours a week helping them practice English they provide room and board. You're free to spend the rest of the time travelling and experiencing the culture of your host country in depth.
Each family is interviewed and carefully screened by in-country staff and you can get to know them in advance through email and phone calls.
You don't have to be fluent in the local language either, whether you're completely new to it or just want to brush up your skills, we can arrange optional language lessons.
