I have recently turned to taking in foreign students in my home in London. My students are sent to me by an agency I use www.hfslondon.com who work for educational institutions in London. It has been a rewarding experience. Although I don't earn as much as when I used to take in lodgers (I used to use airbnb) but I feel more comfortable knowing that my foreign students are vetted by the language schools and my agency and I don't have to worry as a single lady as much about who I am sharing my home with. I have met some lovely students (all over 18 years old thankfully). Would suggest you look into it more if you before taking the plunge but Homestay has been a positive experience.
