No, we wouldn't ask the question that way. We would probably just say "Do you know anything about your host family?" It's admittedly inadequate and definitely not specific enough. The question-asker might need to add additional questions:
- "Do you know anything about your host family? Is it a single person? A couple? With children? Older? Younger? (Etc...)"
And, no, I don't know yet what the family is like. We are supposed to receive that information soon. I have heard that the families probably live in Belgrano, but might live a little farther and we'd have to take public transportation to the university. I'd love to get a good walk to/from class ... not TOO far, but it would be good for exercise if I had to hike a bit every day.
