NW-Services has 3 international high school students waiting for host families for this coming year. Each has been vetted and is ready to arrive as soon as possible. Hosting an exchange student is a wonderful opportunity and often leads to lifelong friendships and life changing experiences for both the student and family.

Have you ever considered hosting an international exchange student? Here at NW Services we have several great students still hoping for a volunteer host family for the 2019-2020 school year. We are looking for homes at John Marshall high school, Buckeye local high school, Paden City high school, Magnolia high school, and Brooke high school.

How about a 15 yr old Spanish boy from the Baleartic island who likes tennis, cooking, and photography. He is the middle child and is considered outgoing with a positive outlook. He regularly does chores at home. He will accept a family pets and one that smokes outside.

We have a 15 yr old Thai female looking for a host family. She has a 7 yr old sister and a pet dog and cow. She and her family enjoy cooking, gardening, and helping out in the local temple. She is a little nervous about talking with Americans because she is not use to our accents. She grew up in the country, but the family moved to the city when it was time for her to go to school.
She is worried about traveling alone from Thailand to the US. Remember she is 15!

Or maybe you would like to learn more about Azerbaijan. Do you know where it is located? We have a 17 year old young lady. She likes reading, swimming, and going skiing with friends. Her parents describe her as very positive and a leader among her friends. She will accept a single mom with no kids as well as a family with pets.

How about Nut from Thailand. He is 17 years old. He accepts single parents with no kids, same s*x parents, parents who smoke outside, families with pets. He enjoys drawing, camping, watching Japanese animation, action movies and plays competitive badminton. He loves cats.

We at NW Services have a 16 yr old female from China who is really hoping to have a host family this year. She likes to dance and read classical Chinese literature. She hopes to eventually study law in the US. She says she will be happy to do chores and cook you some tasty Chinese food, like dumplings.

She would welcome a family of any make-up: same s*x couples, single adults with no kids at home, and families that smoke.

How would you like to welcome "Nut" from Thailand into your family. He is 17 and lives with his parents, older brother and grandparents. He loves cats, traveling, camping, actiion movies, Japanese animaltion and playing games with his older brother. He also plays competitive Badminton. Nut is excited to teach his host famly He will accept a family that smokes outside as well as single adults with no kids in the home.

I have linked a travel guide video to Thailand. One of the great things about hosting is you have someone to visit so you don't have to go to all of the tourist locations!

These are the travel tips you need to know about 'the land of 1,000 smiles', Thailand. Start exploring from sand between your toes whilst flanked by lush mountains, to the twenty-four-hour vibrant frenzy of its capital.
