Exchange and Experience Italian Lifestyles with Joinki

Words cannot express my gratitude and admiration to Sabrina’s for her passion and vision in creating this language program. Because Joinki, I came away with an understanding of Italia that I never would have had before, had I just been a tourist. I came back to the United States with my heart full of love and memories, and a brand new family. I would go back in a heartbeat to invest in the relationships that I created while I was there. This was a life-changing experience for which I am truly grateful!

I really enjoyed my time in Trentino with the Joinki program, and I really cannot recommend it enough! It gave me an amazing opportunity to immerse myself into the Trentino culture, and I feel like I have truly made a connection with the place and the people for life. I now think of my host family as my actual second family and I am so grateful to Sabrina for pairing me with them. I also really appreciate Sabrina for welcoming me and looking after me so well, as she kept checking in on me throughout my stay and planned some amazing excursions with me, making my experience even more special. This has genuinely been an amazing once-in-a-lifetime experience that has changed my life and I highly recommend it. I’ve made so many amazing memories and I’ve seen so many great things- the mountains and the lakes are absolutely breathtaking! Since leaving Trentino about 3 months ago, I have already been back twice, and I will certainly go back again to see everyone again (and to keep exploring some more!!).

I just spent 4 weeks in the region of Trentino and it was a real life-changing experience! From the moment I arrived, I felt welcomed by my host family! I could easily walk in the streets and make conversations with the neighbours and the locals! Everybody was very friendly. The tutoring experience was truly memorable since I got to do it in such a peaceful environment surrounded by mountains and nature! The program is very simple and genuine, and I also got to meet so many amazing people that were interested in learning or practicing their English! You never feel alone there, especially with Sabrina who takes care of every step of the way and who will take time to do some fun activities with you! If you love nature, family values and building friendships, this is the program for you!
