BE A HOST FAMILY TO AN INTERNATIONAL STUDENT
Host a student from Asia or Europe for a few weeks this summer.
Students ages 14 - 24 will visit Portland for 1 to 7 weeks this summer.
Choose the age, gender, nationality and dates that best fit your familiy.
Most of the Asian students will use Tri-Met to commute to weekday English classes and activities at either PSU or PCC Rock Creek. Their evenings and weekends are free to share with their host families. Most of the European students do not have scheduled classes and activities, so they are free to do what your family is doing, whether you are staying at home, or taking a short trips out of town. Teen companionship is important for the European students, but not
necessary for the Asian students.
