When does Walking Tree assign participants to their host family?
Participants are assigned to their host families after the program begins but before arrival in the host village. This gives leaders a chance to become familiar with the personalities and specific interests of each participant so that we can place him or her in the best possible homestay environment. While each host family is distinct in its makeup, all are likely to have children so that participants have host brothers and sisters. The common denominator among all our families are that they are kind, hospitable, and excited to receive our students.
