Eh - I've hosted tons of exchange students.

Chinese (Beijing) = gentle, humble, clever.
Chinese (Hong Kong) = rude, arrogant, metropolitan, bubbly
Italian (Northern) = congenial, love to party, very family-oriented.
French = fun loving, very proud, generous, caring
Japanese (northern/rural) = humble, tired, a little sad, proud of her heritage
Thai (hosted three at different times, not sure of region) =
All three were basically pretty similar in personality, outgoing, fun-loving, active.
Spanish = very similar to French.

Unfortunately, we've rented out our spare room, so we haven't been able to host any students lately. . .

Heh, your Hong Kong description is spot on. Man I love that place :)
I shall keep myself in oysters for the rest of the week, thank you very much.

Yeah, this group of kids were more "socially active" than any other, including the Italians. They were always going out, over to eachother's host-parent houses for parties, **constant** text messaging (this was about 4-5 years ago, so, way before it was kewl in America).

(they were obviously all from very well-off families too. . . even by California standards, they sort of thought that Americans were all supposed to be rich.)

Honestly, that group would have had a much better time had they gone to stay with host families near a major city; our town doesn't have much in the way of night-life, especially for under-age kids.
