A single family house with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths located in a safe, quiet neighborhood. I provide many amenities for your comfort and convenience, including a light breakfast, coffee & tea, cable TV, Business center with wireless internet access, a computer, and a printer/scanner/fax machine. My house is located near Historic Downtown Leesburg, restaurants and grocery stores. Park and Trails grace our neighborhood. I work as a Director of Engineering at a satellite telecommunications company. I did my undergraduate studies at Stanford University. I also have an MBA from the University of Michigan. My wife speaks Vietnamese, Mandarine, and English. She works from home running her own business. She studied at the University of London, where she earned a BS in Business and a Master's degree in Finance. My wife and I found out about homestay for international students years ago when a friend introduced us to a Chinese mother and her son who needed some place to stay for a month while they looked for a new house. The son studied at the Middleburg Academy. He found it convenient to stay at our place because the school's bus stop is only a couple of minutes from our house. We enjoyed helping the son with his homework while he regaled us with stories about his homeland. We'd love to host more international students or their parents in the future.
