We are a welcoming family from Schuylkill County, Pennsylvania! My name is Evelyn, and I work independently from home, while my husband is retired from Hershey. We have a lovely 12 year old daughter who is homeschooled. Our family absolutely loves making friends from around the world, learning about new cultures, trying international foods, and experiencing different languages. My daughter especially enjoys connecting with people everywhere! We are warm people who hope you have a wonderful time staying with us.
