What we do

We connect leaders to leaders, business to business, students to families, and, most importantly, humans to humans.

Homestays & Hospitality

We help international students, organizations, and individual visitors feel welcome in their temporary home by placing them within our network of local host families, providing short or long term homestays as well as hospitality dinners.
