“ I had the best time in my life. My family was warm and welcoming! They hardly spoke any English at all which was difficult at the beginning, but it forced me to just try. I became more comfortable instantly. I also learned much about myself and made lots of new friends. I love France and now I have a family there!” (Penny, Soweto, Intensive Programme to France 2007)
