[quote=Anonymous]I’ve hosted both extension and out-of-country, and the main advantage to having an extension AP was that, as you stated, she was ready from day one. We didn’t have to invest 2-4 weeks getting her up and running, opening a bank account, spending time driving with her, introducing her to the grocery stores and products, helping her through homesickness, culture shock, and suggesting social networks, and waiting to see if it will all work out. My extension AP was capable, but our relationship wasn’t as warm and connected. It may be because we were the third or fourth HF for this AP (she had rematches in her first year), or maybe there’s different priorities if extending with a different family in the second year.[/quote]
