Hi. Does anyone know how I can find a hostfamily in South-England ?

Question

Hi. I'm looking for a host family in the south of England.

My friend (16-year-old girl) and her mother would like to spend two weeks in England and asked me if I could find a hostfamily for them.

They are from Germany and would like to experience "the English way of life". ;)

I don't know how much they are willing to pay... I would have to ask if anyone here is interested in it.

Do you know any organisations?

Or websites?

Or maybe you are interested yourself.

Thank you in advance. :)

Answer 1

i dont know any websites but all of my family lives in england and im sure they would be happy to help. my grandparents live in cheltenham prestbury and they have taken in people like the ones u mentioned before...i could contact them if you want me to

Answer 2

yea there should be a twinning organisation in the town or village where they live, this might not be with a place in england but through that you may be able to make links with a town in england. or there must be a town/village somewhere near you that is twinned with a town/village in england, so they could join that.

thats probably your best bet........

the village i live in is twinned with a german village and a french village

Answer 3

Try these websites:

http://www.host-family.co.uk/

http://www.hostuk.org.uk/

http://www.uk-homestay.com/

All the best!

Answer 4

Does their town have a twin town over in the UK? If they do and it is in the south then there should be some network of people.

I don't know of any websites and live in a small flat so can't help! Sorry!
