"This trip has been so fulfilling, it will influence the rest of my life. I hope for anyone in the future who participates in an exchange that they will enjoy it, even half as much as I did, learn as much, and grow as a person. One day, when I have children, I will encourage them to take part in these trips so they can marvel at history, make new friends, and learn as much as I did." Josh Hopkins, Mount Crest High School, Hyrum, Utha (UT) |

"The benefits the students receive include three weeks in Germany living with a host family and getting inside the German culture in ways no tour could ever provide. They also learn German for more effectively than in a classroom. They also grow as world citizens, their understanding of humanity broadened, and their cultural sensitivities increased." Jonathan Metzler, teacher at Lancaster Mennonite High School, Pennsylvenia (PA) |

"The most successful aspects of our stay were the connections made with German families and the vast amount of places we were able to visit. I have had extremely positive feed back from the US-families – ‘life-changing experience’ and ‘the best experience of his life’." Barbara Miceli, teacher at Burr and Burton Academy, Vermont (VT) |
