Homestay Host Reimbursement
The Australian Homestay Network operates in a number of regions across Australia. Each location has host reimbursement rates specific to the living costs and services available in that region. Host reimbursement rates include the use of laundry facilities, utilities (e.g. power, water) and internet.
