I am looking for a hostfamily living in the USA (California prefered)

Dear hostfamily,
I’m looking for a hostfamily in the USA , because its my big dream to spend one year (2008/2009) there, to meet new people and to know another, your culture. Additionally I want to know the spirit of your schools and learn your language perfectly. I love it to travel around and to meet other people and learn their land, their culture and their language. But in my opinion is it just possible if I really live in that country. So I hope I can be a part of you.
I love the sun and the ocean and to practise surfing, because it makes me feel happy and helps me to calm down. So I would prefere a warm place near the beach.
So if you are interesting in make my dream come true I would be happy if you contact me.
