"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 family






It's a great opportunity to meet nice people, to improve language skills and to get to know the Italian kitchen.

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!

I am spending most of the time at school, speaking English and surrounded by americans. There are days I forget that I live in Italy, because I do not get to interact to any Italians.

I realise that by just roaming around the city I won't be able to make a better connection to it as compared to having lively chats with people who live here.

DineHome is a wonderful idea to get in touch with the Italian language, food and culture and there is no better way to get to know it than with an Italian family.

I love Italian culture and I would like to meet new people and see a typical family in Italy.
We feel like citizens of the world and we consider openness towards foreign young students a great source of mutual enrichment.

I would recommend it for making connections with local families in Italy.

This is the special and very good service and opportunity to spend time with Italian families offered be Dinehome.

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.
I believe that this opportunity can further enrich the language experience of the whole family.
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.
