Bring the World to you/host an AFSer in 2009-10

Experience the World Without Leaving Home! Host an AFSer in 2009-10 (Our team has just added Alabama.)

Enjoying daily family life, meals together, and community activities will make a world of difference to a young visitor who is eager to experience what it's like to live as a member of a family, school, and community in the U.S.
