"Living with my host family has been a valuable part of my experience as an international student in Australia. Being away from my family and home country, Papua New Guinea can be challenging at times, especially the start of my journey in Year 10, but my host family has provided me with a safe, welcoming, and supportive environment that has helped me settle into Australia. I have learned important life skills such as independence, responsibility, communication, and adapting to different environments through living with my host family. My host family has always made an effort to include me in family activities, celebrate special occasions with me, and support me throughout my studies and personal growth. They have helped me improve my confidence, understand Australian culture, and feel at home while studying overseas. I am grateful for the kindness, care, and guidance they have shown me during my time in Australia. Overall, my experience living with a host family has been extremely positive and has played a significant role in making my international student journey enjoyable, comfortable, and successful."

"For the past two years, living as an international student in Australia has been an unforgettable experience, and that is entirely because of my host family. They are truly some of the best people I have ever known in my life. They have been incredibly kind to me from day one, always making sure I am well looked after. From cooking the most delicious food to treating me like a part of their own family, they have made my time here incredibly happy and comfortable. What makes them so special is how much they truly care and go out of their way for me every single day. No matter what my schedule looks like, they are always there to drop me off and pick me up from school, and they make sure I get to and from work safely. I couldn’t have asked for a better family to stay with during my journey, and I am so deeply grateful for everything they have done for me." Homestay is a fantastic way to experience and immerse yourself in your study Australia journey, and it takes the worry out of finding accommodation, and organising a Student Guardian visa.
