The evaluation summarizes students' experiences visiting Slovakia and staying with host families. Most students found the host families polite and accommodating, though a few noted issues with communication or being pressured to eat too much. The activities were generally interesting but not unique. Looking ahead, students expect the next visit in Turkey to include making new friends, seeing sights, trying new food, and working in mixed groups instead of separated by nationality.
