Be pen pals for life with a french student you host.

Did you have a pen pal in another part of the world and when you would get home from school anxiously look for the mail to come to read what your distant friend had done in the last month since you had heard from them? Then you were able to hear from your new friend abroad with technology so were able to instant message them or read an email they had wrote 6 hours earlier that day? Have you every thought about opening your home to a student from another part of the world so you can have a pen pal for life. French students are coming to the Cleveland area for 20 days this summer and we are in need of host families. This is a great opportunity to get to know another culture in a very short period. They will arrive August 1st threw the 20th and would love to stay in the Cleveland area.

They love to come to the great lakes region because the fresh water, amusement park and of course Rock-n-Roll. They will come in as a group and travel for 2 day trips to Cedar Point and downtown but the rest of the time would like to learn American family life styles. Eat meals together, watch some of our many TV channels, shop at our grocery stores and explore our malls. This program sends high school age students to explore American teenage life styles for over 25 years. I have been hosting for more then 13 in the Avon Lake area.
