Meet Emily
Outgoing, Cultured, Trusting
We have experienced living abroad ourselves! I have lived in South Korea for two years and I did a homestay in Australia. I then lived there with my South African husband for 5 years!
On a typical day...
I’m a clean person and keep a clean house.
When I host guests...
I like to chat with them when they are home but have my own things going on.

We have a 3 Bedroom Home 10 Minutes from SUNTRUST STADIUM in Atlanta. My house is close to Walmart and CVS for shopping (1 mile away), a fishing lake, horse stables, family-friendly activities, the city center, 20 minute drive to downtown Atlanta, the airport ($20-30 uber ride). You’ll love our home because of the quiet and safe neighborhood, the huge backyard and bbq area, and our two adorable daughters are lots of fun to play with!

About the Area
Our house has 3 bedrooms and is 1500 sq feet. We have a large backyard with a firepit and BBQ that we use in spring and summertime. I am an English professor and I love hosting students. I love introducing my daughters to new people from around the world! We started hosting students in 2015 and have hosted two students from South America, one from Germany, and two from Saudi Arabia. We are interested in hosting other students from different parts of the world and learning your customs. My husband is originally South African and we lived in Australia together for five years. I am from New York and love to travel. Atlanta has been a wonderful city for us to settle down in with our daughters, ages 4 and 1. We love to go for walks, go boating, fishing, or go to the local beach and lakes! Our house is a friendly environment and we hope you enjoy your stay!
