Homestay

All homestay families have experience hosting exchange students. The Strasbourg homestay experience feels like renting a room in a family’s home. Some meals are provided but because of the demands on your time as a student-intern, you are encouraged to commit to no more than a couple of evening meals each week. Some homestays will have a private entrance, all have full kitchen access and the freedom to come and go on your own time.
