In recent years, more and more international families have hoped to give their children opportunities to step outside familiar environments during school holidays, experience different cultures, and gain a more meaningful understanding of life in another country. Compared with traditional short trips, some parents are looking for something beyond sightseeing — they hope their children can stay longer in one place and experience a different way of daily life more genuinely.

China is gradually becoming one of the destinations attracting growing interest from these families.

On one hand, China offers a rich and diverse cultural environment. Children may have opportunities to experience a Chinese-speaking environment, while also becoming familiar with different lifestyles, food culture, local customs, history, and everyday social life. Compared with short-term tourism, a longer stay may allow children to engage more naturally with local life, helping them gradually develop independence, adaptability, and cross-cultural understanding through experience.

On the other hand, many parents also have practical concerns. If a child stays in a foreign country for an extended period, will daily life be safe and properly supported? Will someone be available to help with day-to-day needs? Can the child have a stable routine and reliable companionship in an unfamiliar environment?

Against this backdrop, we gradually recognized a growing and genuine need. Some families are not simply looking for a trip to China, but rather hope their children can spend part of their school holidays here in a more reassuring, supported, and immersive way — experiencing daily life in China, gaining exposure to the Chinese language and culture, and spending meaningful time in a stable environment with responsible adult companionship and assistance.

Based on these needs, we gradually developed the Student Holiday Stay Model.

Student Holiday Stay Model

The Student Holiday Stay Model is a holiday living and support arrangement designed for international families who would like their children to spend a longer period of time in China during school holidays. During their stay, children may experience daily life in China, gain exposure to a Chinese-speaking environment, and participate in cultural activities and local experiences.

With responsible adult companionship and day-to-day support, children can stay in a relatively stable environment while receiving help with daily living and holiday arrangements. This model is not traditional tourism, a study-abroad program, or a legal guardianship arrangement. Instead, it is better understood as a supported and experience-focused holiday stay in China.

This model is generally suitable for families who value personal growth, cross-cultural exposure, Chinese language immersion, and a well-supported environment for their children during school holidays.

In addition to the Student Holiday Stay Model, we also offer several other service models to meet different client needs. As every client's situation, budget, schedule, and level of support required may vary, we usually help match a more suitable arrangement based on individual circumstances.
