host families are families that you stay with when you go on a school trip, or on a holiday away from your home country. host families are usually for younger people, e.g. students at school or uni. i am staying with two host families, one i already stayed with for around a week on my first trip to japan, and the son of the other host parents stayed with me for 3 weeks in australia when he came here on a school trip last year. does this answer your question yukiko?
