EIC People

Kate lives in a three bedroom town house near the city centre. She is semi-retired and enjoys sport, tennis, yoga, reading, the theatre and languages. The student rooms are good sized doubles, very comfortable and well decorated with good storage.

Kate says: "I really enjoy accommodating students and showing them around the local area. My experience of living and working abroad gives me the knowledge to provide a great home for students, I am prepared to help them in any way I can. I have 3 grown up children who live away from home but they often come to meet the students."

'My hostess is very nice and kind. We talked a lot and she corrected me kindly. We often smiled. She guided me through town. The food was delicious.'  Ludmilla, Russia

'It was one of the best experiences that I've ever had. I learnt a lot from my host mother: culture, language, people, and cities. She helped me with everything!'         Romina, Spain
