What our host and students say

We love to help our international students have the best possible Australian experience so they will go home with great memories and a good impression of Australia, its life and people.

We learn a lot about other countries, cultures and customs and hopefully our students further their education by also learning about ours!

We enjoy having overseas students stay and have many good memories of all the wonderful people we have shared our home with. I think we get back more than we 'put out'.

Being a doctoral research student at Monash University, I wouldn't have had the opportunity to meet as many Australians as I have, if not for Michael and Nola, who showed me what living with an Australian family was really like. I have enjoyed every minute of my stay and would recommend Homestay to any international student who would like to know how Australians live. I really felt I was part of a family, in a home away from home.

I like the Australian style of living and I love staying with my Homestay family. They are so nice and I have a wonderful time with Nola and Michael. It's a lot of fun to experience Australian culture. I love them so much and hope they will visit Hong Kong very soon.
