So what was billeting like?

The billets were really nice and interested about the things we did in NZ. They were really helpful and made my stay here really awesome and comfortable. S.Baek

The billets made sure I had fun and that I was looked after very well.
Basically, they treated me better than my real family. I expect improvements when I get back.

Really enjoyed my billets families hospitality,they were really nice and welcoming and they seemed to enjoy our stay with them.-K.Madgwick

As has been mentioned, hospitality from the billets was amazing. Stayed with a half persian, half Caucasian girl's family (interesting mix I know). They actually went out of their way to buy us the type of cereal and even the type of milk we wanted. And don't worry mum I was well fed too. - T.Batts

Had fun with the billets, especially going to the American football game. Turns out that Americans interpret "sweet as" as "sweet ass". Been getting some weird looks lately... A. McDermott

What an experience! Staying with the billets was everything I had imagined every stereotype about an "American Family" was met; Massive portions of food, typical American house with a USA flag flying high and much more. They treated me with absolutely respect like I was their own. Overall great experience! American football game was pretty wicked too!

My stay in Pasadena has been so amazing and just how I thought an American family would be like- they spoke kinda weird but it was very good hospitality- H. Kerr

My family from Pasadena was amazing! They fed me well and I got a great sleep. The family was really friendly as well and made sure we had everything we needed. They were awesome!
