I gained confidence in myself. Now facing uni and moving out of home, I’m not scared in the slightest. I’ve already done it — in French.

I had expected it to be great, but I could never have imagined how incredible it actually was. Don’t just think about it. DO IT!

I’d like to thank everyone from the WEP team for making my experience the most unbelievable experience of my life so far.

Sam is doing really well. He loves the town, the family and I think he will be heading back there as soon as he can next year.

I had hosted many of your students and always had a lot of respect for the thoroughness of WEP.

I learnt that the world is at our fingertips. Forget about home and never say no.

We have broadened our horizons and had fun having an extra member of our family.

I love my host family. They are generous and wonderful people. We quite often do things together as a family. I’m very happy!

The professionalism of the organisations in Australia and France was very pleasing, as was the personal interaction with all staff.

Take the opportunity to challenge yourself like never before and learn a new language, new culture and form life-long friendships.
