Testimonials
What our Hosts have to say about MLI Homestay
I enjoyed my life in Canada. I hanged out with my friends and made many memories. The most favorite thing I did in Canada is Canada Wonderland. I went there with my host family and we had a great time riding the roller coasters.
Going to Canada was one of the best decisions in my life. It gave me the freedom to experience new things and to truly enjoy life. I have found a loving family in the people I have met.
The time in Canada had a lot of fun and meaningful moment such as communication with many people who I haven’t met before and experience of different culture and lifestyle.
