Spring Break with an Exchange student

We just got back from our Spring Break trip. Our family - my husband and I took our grand kids and our high school student from Spain all to Orlando and Saint Pete Beach. We had a great time making memories together.

It is so fulfilling to experience life through the eyes of an international student.  She has become like a natural member of our family and gets along wonderfully with us and our grandchildren. As a coordinator, I spoke with some of our other families who took their students to Disney, Callaway Gardens, Colorado skiing and a beach trip to South Carolina. These students love the opportunity to see our day to day lives and experience the American lifestyle and make memories that fulfill dreams and last them a lifetime! 

Hosting is a fun way to bring other worlds into our own. We are able to introduce other cultures and customs into our families and communities and promote understanding.
