"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
I believe that this opportunity can further enrich the language experience of the whole family.
It is an amazing opportunity that you cannot let pass. You get the chance to learn about the Italian's way of life and practice your Italian.
The perfect way to meet an authentic Italian family.
An easy and pleasant way to meet new friends and get to know different cultures.
An experience I recommend, to test your hospitality and open-mindedness. Get to know other cultures and realities, without moving from home.
Such a great first-hand experience. My host family was so kind and open to meeting me. Every dinner has been a great experience!
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!
We feel like citizens of the world and we consider openness towards foreign young students a great source of mutual enrichment.
As an international student in Bologna it is easy to rest inside the "Erasmus bubble" and lose any contact to locals. I am a curious person, always looking for new experiences and adventures.
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.
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.
We like to meet foreign students both for the opportunity to speak English and for the curiosity to learn about cultures other than our own.
