I really want to go abroad for a semester in my senior year to Italy or Spain and stay with a host family while going to school. However, IT IS SO EXPENSIVE! so i was wondering if it was cheaper to have a student from the country I wanted to go to actually switch with me?

You are right. It is expensive!
There are ways to get around it, however.
When I was an exchange student with Youth For Understanding, I got a full scholarship. YFU has several!

hi! i have recently began looking into becoming a foreign exchange student too. i am only a sophmore, but i really feel it would be a good experiance for me. i was reading on another blog that an org. called rotary offers alot of full pay scholarships. the only problem is my parents arnt to pleased with the idea of me going over seas by myself. any tips on how to convince them that it will be good for me? and let me know if u have any luck finding a good org.
