Host families will get you closer to language, culture, food and fun!
Have you ever thought about going abroad? Or maybe you’ve already decided to go and are dealing with all the paperwork right now? There are so many options to explore a different culture and various perspectives on life. You can go abroad and study at a foreign university. If you’re not interested in studying, you can apply for a job and gain first working experience abroad. Also, you can do an internship in a different country, or work as a volunteer in an aid organization. So many options. But they have one thing in common: A host family.
A host family is a family who takes in young people, who left their country to work or study abroad, for a certain time. Obviously, a host family is not a must. If you don’t feel it, you can rent an apartment and that’s totally fine. However, I would like to tell you today why I think a host family is one of the best things while going abroad.
