Whoever has ever hosted an exchange student before knows how stressful such a project can be. So, what was it really like to have an Indian in your house?
We asked some of the German parents about their experiences with students of LVIS: “What impressions left the excange project on you or your child?”
Here are some of their answers:
- “Die Welt ist sehr verschieden” (The world is very diverse)
- “Ein bischen anstrengend, aber es war definitv machbar und eine tolle Zeit, die wir nie bereuen werden!” (A little bit exausting, but definitly possible to manage and it was a great time we will never miss)
- “It was a great time because I learnt about India, too. We didn’t have any problems with the exchange partner and we were sad when he left.”
- “The culture of the Indian people is very interesting”
- “It was interesting to host a foreign teenager from India. Everybody was really friendly and open. It was also nice to get in contact with the Indian parents on skype. We also learned a lot about the Indian cuisine and the indian way of life.”
We are curious about your honest feedback. Have you ever hosted a foreign student? What was it like? Tell us your story in the comment section!
