“Being an international host family has meant so much to my family. We have truly had three amazing girls. Sarah, Jessi and Alina. Jessi is coming to stay with us in September for two weeks. We went to Germany and spent a week with her last summer. Alina came back once, and we saw her in Germany for a week last summer as well. With my daughter Kyley splitting her time there between the two of her sisters, she was in Germany for over a month last summer.
Sarah’s family has invited us to France next summer, and I have no doubt we will see all the girls, again and again. The goodbyes are difficult, but the memories of all we have shared—and the ones yet to be shared—do make it all worthwhile!” ~ Melissa from the United States
