Polaris:I had once heard of some service the facilitated that, but I don't know if it's still in operation, what it costs, or how it works.I have yet to use it myself, but the most popular such service is the Pasporta Servo. A book is published yearly with names and contact information (by country) of Esperantists willing to host other Esperantists in their home. This is a service usually offered free or at low costs, but that is up to the individual host.
Information in English:

To my knowledge, the longest trip anyone has taken via the service was 16 months.

I just remembered learning during it that 'Holland' is only one of the provinces of the country.I never knew that either. Always thought that they were just different names for the same country. I think most people you ask here in the US would, too.

Pharoah:Not only that but Dutch people themselves have encouraged the identification. I remember one broadcaster in the late 80s requesting that letters be sent to a post box in 'The Hague, Holland.'I just remembered learning during it that 'Holland' is only one of the provinces of the country.I never knew that either. Always thought that they were just different names for the same country. I think most people you ask here in the US would, too.
