I am a retired pre-school who has decided to open my home and host international students learning English in America. I have been hosting students from many countries around the world for 12 years. I am a non smoker and wish to entertain non smokers only in my home, therefore I can offer a clean, quiet, smoke free environment during your stay in our beauty city. I can also assist those who are learning English with any questions they may have while learning the language in our beauty city of San Diego.

My home is centrally located in the heart of San Diego. I live in a quiet area with two adjacent cul-de -sacs which keeps the area closed to through traffic. I am within a few minutes of all the freeway connections in the city. My home is 10 minutes from downtown by car, 35 minutes by the bus and trolley. I live alone with visiting children and I have no animals. I am within walking distance to the city bus stops, banks, shopping center, fitness gyms, grocery stores, libraries, several restaurants, schools, fire department, parks and local businesses.

I enjoy cooking and prepare meals from several countries and many cuisines, but I do not prepare or purchase Halal foods. These foods are expensive and distance far to purchase them. As a main dish I prepare chicken, beef, and seafood.

Each bedroom in my home consist of comfortable beds, desk and chair, dressers and closet space for storage, ceiling fans and lighting that is conductive for your studying needs. I have Wi-Fi, central heating and air, washer and dryer, and a maintained backyard and garden area to enjoy.

When responding to my homestay please include your age, sex, and length of stay you wish to be in the home. You will be welcomed and I will try and make your stay in San Diego a happy and memorable one!

Once a host confirms they're available, you can go ahead and pay the 15% booking fee (maximum of 250 $£€ for longer term bookings) and a 25% deposit using a choice of payments: Visa, Mastercard, American Express, Maestro, Laser, JCB & PayPal. The deposit is collected in advance on behalf of the host to protect against no show or late cancellations (within 7 days of arrival). You then pay your host the balance due on arrival.

This deposit payment will only be refunded if you cancel the booking at least 7 full days prior to arrival.
