living with a host family abroad

4 years ago i decided that i want to go to London to study English abroad. but i was only 15 then and going by my self away from my family is something hard to do. so my parents decided its a good idea to live with a host family. a host family is a family that live there and host students for a while to help them learn more about the culture and learn the language more also cook food for them and take care of them. so i lived with a British family for 2 months. You can make new friends, see new places and immerse yourself thoroughly in a new culture complete with local languages and slang, foods, customs, music, books and even television programmes! But when it all goes wrong, living abroad with a family can be horrid. To make sure that you're host family experience falls into the former, follow the three C's of living abroad with a host family: Communication, Cleanliness and Caring. .. i had a great experiance then and learned alot and i can trully say living with a host family is a must for someone that just started living abroad.
