Lixian and her family are wonderful hosts! They really tried to make me feel as comfortable as possible. They also respected my wishes to speak as much Mandarin as possible but if anything was very important, it was possible to communicate in English as well. Many relatives were over for a certain time which was really interesting and gave me a real insight into a Chinese family life. It's definitely the right place to go if you want to connect with the host family. I would have loved to spend even more time with this lovely family.
