I have spent 6 months with my host family who is really kind, outgoing, and made me feel at home. I have a great time with them and my English skills have really improved. Also, my host family has many other students from all over the world, which provides many learning opportunities for me about different cultures. I strongly recommend students have such a special experience during their stays with GEOS.
