Okay. So, we learn a language. We learn about the culture sometimes through our textbook, sometimes from the media and sometimes from nativev speakers.
But how can we be sure that what we're told is true? And how can we truely understand the differences?
That's where an exchange and homestay program comes in. I personaly just finshied a homestay in Okinawa Japan and I seriously believe that it's an oppertunity that everyone who studies another language should at least strive towards.
You not only get a chance to improve your language skills and make your speach patterns more native- but you get the chance to live another life and look at your life from another point of veiw.
Has anyone else here ever gotten to do an exchange or homestay?
Anyone planning to?
Why Not?
