"It was really nice to talk to her about her origins, the "simplicity" of Japanese writing and the colourful customs of our country. Seeing my kids talking to her in English as if she were a friend they had known for a long time helped us to understand how many possibilities there are for so many young people today, and how simple it can be to seize them!"

"It was a really amazing experience, because I could practice my English and Italian skills, learn a lot of typical dishes, talk about the Italian culture and show them my culture as well."
Have dinner with your familyI'd love to become familiar with an Italian family in a home environment, and have an opportunity to practice and better my Italian, or help others with their English if they should so desire.
I believe that this opportunity can further enrich the language experience of the whole family.
To improve the spoken English of the whole family, because we would like our 4 children to understand how important learning English is for their future.
An experience I recommend, to test your hospitality and open-mindedness. Get to know other cultures and realities, without moving from home.
We think it is useful for the student to feel at home in a country that is not their own and for us adults, but especially for our son, to experience globalisation in practice.
Through DineHome, I hope to find the little known nooks and corners of the town, the stories of childhoods spent here.
An easy and pleasant way to meet new friends and get to know different cultures.
I'd like to develop my Italian, and build a connection to people in Bologna to better understand the city I'm living in. I live in a bubble of foreign students, and it'd be great to escape from that.
It's a great opportunity to practice Italian in a nice, homey atmosphere and learn more about Italian culture from a family.
It's an amazing experience to exchange culture and share conversation with people you would have never met if it wasn't for this programme!
An excellent opportunity for cultural exchange and language practice, while giving a student away from home a sense of warmth and family.
Such a great first-hand experience. My host family was so kind and open to meeting me. Every dinner has been a great experience!
