My homestay family was very friendly, helpful and constantly engaged me in speaking Spanish. They were very interesting, intelligent people and tried to make me as comfortable as possible. I felt very secure, well-cared for and happy in their home. The office staff is amazing. Each person that I spoke to was so helpful and nice. I commend you on your choice of AmeriSpan staff.
