My Italian family, made me part of their family and took excellent care of me. I fell in love with the family and know that I have made a connection with the family forever.

I decided to teach last summer with The Cultural Exchange Project in Thailand because one of my goals was to experience a new culture and immerse myself into it. I feel I have really accomplished that during my time here.

It's great to be on a program where you get paid and become so close to your host family. Just be open to the experience and all it has to offer. I would also like to add that I am a solo female traveler and had no issues with safety.
