Dear host family,
First of all I want to thank you for reading my letter in which I want to introduce myself and tell you something about my family, friends, hobbies and everyday life. Also I want to thank you for your hospitality and that you giving me a home in the USA for 10 months. It would be very great to spend one year of my live as a member of your family. I’m so excited to get to know a new culture and new people and I’m truly grateful that I get this chance by you. I hope this letter will help you getting a first impression and get to know the reasons why I want to go to America.
Now I will try to describe myself and my life with my family. My name is xxx and I’m from Germany. I’m a 15-year-old-girl and my birthday is on eight March. Overall, I think I’m a pretty nice person. I love to have fun and be crazy, but also I’m gladly among people and I appreciate each person. I’m open-minded, social, a tolerant person and a big dreamer.
I attend a secondary school at the 10th grade which has 1200 pupils. The school starts at 7.45 am until 13.20 am. Each day I have different subjects; like English, German, Social Studies, Geography, Sciences and my favourite subjects; Math and Art. Presently I make a six months practicum in a 4th grade; it’s once a week and it makes me much fun, because the children are also very nice.
Because my parents are divorced for 7 Years, I live alone with my mother xxx and our two rabbits in a flat in Leipzig. In St. Petersburg, their birthplace in Russia, she has study librarianship. With 20 years she pulled to Germany and there she get to know my father xxx. At the moment she works as a public relations officer in a school. I’ve got a little sister. She is 4 years old and named xxx. She is the daughter of my father and his girl-friend xxx. I visit she nearly weekend and we do a lot of thinks together. Certainly I take also action with my mom, her boy-friend Michael and his two children xxx and xxx.
I’ve got a very good relationship to all members of my family. We go to the zoo or go for a swim on the lake, go for a walk in the park, shopping in the city or we make a Sunday-breakfast outside.
My tasks at home are not so large things; I have to clean up my room, to take out the garbage, to clean the cage of my pets, I have to do my homework and watch out for my siblings.
Now I would like to come to my interests. I like so many things, which are very different. In summer I like wind-surfing on the lake here in Leipzig, to chill out on the beach, to sleep in the open or go for a swim. But in winter I like to spend time with my friends at home by a DVD-evening. Also, in my free-time I like reading, to spend time with my family and friends, to bake, painting and photography; to go outside taking pictures with my camera.
Also I love travelling; it is my all-time favourite activity. When I was still a small child, I traveled with my parents across Europe. We visited so many cities; like Venice in Italy, Lisbon in Portugal, Prague in Czechia and so on. In the last years we were among the pyramids of Giza in Cairo and hike in the canyons of Spain. My favorite place to visit is Vienna. Last holidays I saw the “Vienna Prater”; it is a big theme park. One of my goals in life is to travel all over the world!
Also in my school I have done a lot of things. I was at the school choir and in the “wind-surfing project group”. Once a week after school I’m a mentor and look after kids, play with them and help them by the homework.
It was always my dream to go one year in the USA; because on the one side I would like to make new experiences, get to know new people , get better language skills and also it bring better chances for your professional path. Of the other side I like to will independent and confident, I want to learn more over your life, your country and your culture in America, quasi the “American way of life”. Another reason for my stay abroad is your school-system. It is very different from ours, and I like to choose between many different subjects. Also, I would like to get to know your everyday life and your celebrations, like Thanksgiving, Halloween or the St. Patrick’s Day.
Now I would like to tell you something about my vision of the future. After my year abroad I will finish my school. In other words at first I will make my A-Level and later I would like to study. If I’m older, I will travel around the world and I will visit as many countries as I can not even count. Maybe, I make also a year as au pair girl or so. Well wait and see what happens.
I would be so glad and grateful if you would let me be a part of your family! I’m look forward to meet you and I’m look forward of the common time.
I hope I’ll see you soon .
with kind Regards.
