Cultural exchange in the UK

España

Andy is open, warm and incredibly self-transparent. From the very first message/call, he made me feel trusted and welcome. This isn't a regular Worldpackers' experience, but one focused on personal growth, emotional connection and real cultural exchange. You aren't welcomed as a volunteer, but as a helper and friend in order to the home together. Besides, I had space for self-discovery and for myself, including a trip to London. We also had deep conversations which I never expected to have. During the time I spent there, we formed a true bond, so I only wish I could have stayed longer.

A Peaceful and Enrich staying if you're looking for more personal experience than a hostel or group project is a great choice. Staying with Andy and Joe felt like being welcome to calm cozy home with amazing food, and grateful thoughtful conversations the home safe and relaxed atmosphere. This area is peaceful and perfect for downtime yet close enough to Sheffield city centre for day trips and meals are provided and delicious and there is a good good balance between time with your hosts and space explore or work in your own project I'd righty recommend this stay especially for as a first host

Staying with Andy truly felt like home—I was welcomed as a friend from day one. The atmosphere sparks creativity, and there's always something to do, for yourself or around the house, without feeling overwhelming. Some of the best moments were the days visiting places with Andy and Joe, or the late-night talks about social issues, self-awareness, and life in general. It's not just a place to be hosted—it's a second home where you feel truly cared for and loved. It's a one-of-a-kind experience that, if you're open to it, can help you grow and become a better version of yourself.

I stayed here for three months, and it was one of the most unique experiences I've had. Andy is kind, fun-loving, and open-minded, making conversations engaging. His partner, Joe, is more introverted but lovely and thoughtful. You'll spend most of your time with Andy, joining activities you choose together. During the day, while he works, you'll help with household tasks but are free to plan your own time. It's a great way to improve your English in a fun setting. If you're open-minded and seeking a unique experience, this is the perfect place.

It was my first time traveling abroad, and I'm so grateful for this experience! We chatted for months before I arrived, so it felt like home when I got here, even though it was different and better than I'd imagined. Andy and Joe are amazing friends. Andy has a fantastic sense of humor, is transparent, keeps conversations lively, and I was like his wingman. Joe is genuine and cooks delicious meals! These months have been truly meaningful. Sheffield has so much to explore, especially if you love nature. You'll the home about the culture and yourself. Thank you, Andy!

Thank you Andy! .. Why ? Because here, in Sheffield, at your home it's the place to be to improve your english, but at least, it's the best place to share moments with very good friends. Andy is one of the most generous people I ever know : he brought me in vacation with him, I met his Mum, and always with smile and happiness. For sure Andy and Joe will be my friends for life. I recommend to everybody, who want a special help experience, to talk with Andy and understand how you can help him because for sure he will be able to help you. Thank you for all my friend.

This experience has been enriching. I've improved my English, traveled to different places, and met wonderful people, Andy and Joe. Both are kind, friendly, and understanding. Andy has a great sense of humor and approaches life with a relaxed and enjoyable attitude, while Joe is very studious and cooks delicious dishes. If you're seeking a unique experience where you can be completely self-transparent and live among native people, this is the opportunity for you.

More than a host, was like a friend, the age gap didn't make a diferrence to me. Shefiel is a nice plece for walking and is full of beatiful parks and people.while i was here i helped him with his gym routine and we debated about a lot of subjects. It was a difference experience, that i think that is worth trying at least once in life.

I had a wonderful time staying with Andy and Joe, a lovely couple who welcomed me into their home. Andy is a great mentor and friend, who shared his wisdom and insights with me. He also taught me a lot about the British culture and was curious to the home about mine. He is very kind and hospitable, and has a genuine sense of humor. I will definitely keep in touch with them in the future and hopefully we will meet again. This was not just a helping experience, but also a personal growth journey for me. I learned to be more open and honest with myself and learned about being self transparent.

Immersing myself with Andy and his partner has been a real-game changer. Living throughout their perspective of the world have really made me aware of valuable and transformative insights giving me a more open mindset to leave with. I sparked with personal growth which can be reflected on others. They were patient with me as I navigated this new experience which helped immensely. I recommend anyone who's looking to be a better version of themself to take a chance and to build a stronger foundation for your future
