Meet the family on Google Meet#
You meet your host family before you commit to the match.
We do not publish family photos online. Instead, once a few homes look like a good match, we arrange a short Google Meet with each household — so you can hear their voices, ask about daily rhythm, pets, and the room, and only then choose where you feel at ease.
What families say about us#
Host families connected with Euro-2000 who have already worked with Anna on Yale’s summer program — short notes on matching, daily life, and support.
The students who stayed with me settled in quickly — we built warm, trusting relationships. We are still in touch with two of them. When questions or everyday issues came up, they were resolved quickly: Anna was always available.
We especially value how carefully Anna matches students — she takes into account both the young people’s interests and what works for the host family. She stays available throughout the stay and helps find a solution when questions arise.
Sample profiles from our network#
Our hosts are Russian-speaking families from Batumi’s educational community connected with Euro-2000. All live within walking distance of that school, a useful landmark for the host-family area. Each student has a private room — convenient for study and personal space. Many families have already welcomed students from Germany and participants of Yale University programs, so they are used to international guests. Below are brief, anonymized sketches — the real acquaintance happens on the call.
An active family with a dog
The family’s roots are Russian, but several generations have lived in Batumi. There is always something going on at home: a university student daughter is into fashion, travel, and an active lifestyle; her father works at sea; her mother runs a beauty salon. A large guard dog lives with them — a good fit if you like animals.
A multilingual home with a cat
Before Batumi, this household lived in Kazakhstan, so switching languages feels natural. The daughter speaks Russian, English, and German; her mother teaches mathematics at school. Guests are welcome, travel is a shared habit, and a cat quietly rules the apartment.
A musical, multilingual household
Evenings here often mean a film discussion or piano practice — there are both a grand piano and an upright at home. The son is half Italian and speaks Italian, Georgian, German, French, English, and Russian; he also plays tennis and draws. Relatives work in education, art history, and Russian philology, so conversation at the table is rarely dull.
A medical family that loves sport
Dinner might turn into a cooking experiment led by their son, who also swims and trains in several sports. Care for others is woven into the house: one parent is a pediatric neurologist, the other a historian who runs a construction business. Expect an energetic rhythm and a clear sense of routine.
A creative home with a guitar
Guitar riffs and rock playlists set the tone for their teenage son, while weekends often mean picnics or short trips out of the city. His mother trained as a doctor, now works in wellness and hospitality, paints, and supports children’s charity projects. It is a hospitable, creative home that prefers movement to sitting still.
A family of dance and voice
Georgian dance steps and vocal rehearsals are part of ordinary evenings here. The daughter sings competitively, has won regional contests, and speaks Russian, German, English, and Georgian. Family roots reach back to Russia; her mother, an economist by training, runs a beauty business, and together they keep an active, travel-loving pace of life.
Two sisters: studies and music
Two sisters share the house and pull it in different, lively directions: one aims for top school marks, the other fills the rooms with violin, guitar, and piano. Their mother combines civil engineering with many years as a cosmetologist. New faces and new cities are welcome — the family likes to travel and meet people.
