"Thank you so much for
making me do a family
stay--it would not have
been my own choice--I
wouldn't have done it
and I would have missed
out on so much!"
French Student, WI
“I had another option to travel to Europe this summer, where I would have seen 7 countries in 16
days with a very large group. I chose this program so I would be able to see and be involved in the
culture rather than just be a tourist.”French Student, IA
“This was a once-in-a-lifetime experience that I
wouldn't have missed for anything. I had a great time and got a chance to experience in real life what
we had been learning in class for four years!”French Student, WI
