We learned from our mistakes last year and this year we met our international students at the airport with a welcome sign, What a difference we feel this time. We really feel bonded to our students and I think they to us. I would encourage all of the hosts to try if possible to greet your student at the airport or as soon as possible after they arrive. We have had a great 1st week with our students. Hope the rest of you hosts have lots of fun with your students as well. This is my second year of being a host family with the IHP.
