We only accept guests staying for a minimum of a one month term. Living with a family in there home, having your own private room and food prepared for you is very basically what Homestay is. Living with a Host family doesn't mean you will have a free maid service or that you will be catered to, you will still need to take care of yourself and act responsibly. B y staying in a Homestay you get the benefits of becoming part of a n English speaking family enabling you to practice and improve your English skills and/or get some understanding of Canadian culture and values. As with any family there are certain things expected from you. This is a part of your Homestay experience.
