Questions?
We're here to help.

Who is My Family Abroad for?
For families who want to give their children an immersive language experience abroad, without going through an agency.
Can I use MFA if I am a renter?
Yes. Hosting is about welcoming a member of another family, whether you own or rent your home.
Is there a membership commitment?
Signing up is free. The Membership costs €500 per family per year. If you do not travel during the year, it is extended for another year at no cost. Hosting does not use up your year.
How do credits work?
Hosting earns credits, travelling spends them. 1 night hosted = 1 credit. 1 credit = 1 night of stay. Your Membership includes 15 welcome credits, and referring a family earns 3 more.

Welcome the world.
Travel the world.
