My experience with Home Stay I've already made in some countries and they were very positive. In 2005 I spent during my internship in Seoul, about 4 months in a Korean family in Kangnam. Nowhere else can you learn in such a short time, the Korean culture and language, as by a stay in a Korean family. It provides a unique opportunity to glimpse into the cultural characteristics of Korean to attract families who might otherwise only hear from guide books or other stories. If I'm in the English online forums or blogs about exaggerating, I am always surprised negatively, propagating stereotypes for what some foreign against Koreans. "All Koreans are racists, dirty, unmannered etc". They are mostly frustrated English teachers who have not done well to overcome the admittedly no small culture shock. No way I would like to argue that there is only hospitable, friendly Koreans in the country, because I myself have already collected several bad experiences, and often more than just a fist in the bag made me re-turns as a Korean with a stupid saying or I was back in front of the feet had to spit. Without Korean friends, confronted with some xenophobic newspaper articles and a language that one is not conversant, can be driven drift through the pent-up frustration in a parallel world in which we soon again doing all Koreans in the same drawer, and you come to the conclusion anyway all the Koreans are nothings.

Homestay is an opportunity to establish new friendships with Koreans and to foster mutual cultural understanding. Homestay families can help to bridge the language barrier, are quite well even when planning a trip to the assistance, and other daily problems that one in foreign countries sometimes life difficult. Homestay is not only suitable for longer stays, but even short trips to Korea can get through a homestay accommodation is special and unique.
