I had a kid in my class who was the son of our school's very first exchange student. He went and stayed in the same country as his dad did. I thought that was kind of cool.

We hosted a boy from Brazil and a girl from Spain. Both were tremendous opportunities for my wife and I and our kids! Would highly recommend doing this. We have heard some "horror stories" about other experiences, (some bad students, but also some bad host families), but ours were both great. We continue to stay in contact with both of our "kids", and have traveled to visit them both.
