I come from a little family, where there is my mother, my little sister and my grandmother. There is also my little dog, who is now 10 years old and who is a Jack Russel. He loves to play and is very lovely. His name is Olaf exactly like the snowman in Frozen because his body is white but his right ear is brown !My mom just turned 45 years old, her name is Naima, we are both very close, she is like my best friend. I can tell her everything and also can share everything with her, even our clothes ! Then i have my little sister, she is 15 years old, her name is Alyah (exactly like the singer !) as my mom and i, my sister and i are also very close. There is no problem about sharing something between us, we talk about everything and laugh a lot together about anything. My grandmother is now 72 years old, her name is Nadia, she’s always been like a second mother to me. Especially when i lost my dad, when i was 8. This tragic event, made us a very united family, where there is a lot, like really a lot of love and care.
I think i will describe myself as someone who is very generous. Since i’ve grown up with a little sister, I’ve learned to always share so I absolutely don’t have any problem with sharing. I’m also pretty sociable, I love to make new friends. I don’t have any problem with coming towards people and starting a conversation. I’m also someone who speaks a lot, which means I always starts conversations. Moreover I’m the type of person who never gives up ! I know that when I want something I do everything in my power to get it. For example when i want to reach my goals. I’m also really curious, not in a bad way, but more like i always want to discover new things about cultur, new languages or even new tastes in food. I will say that my strenght is my capacity to adapt wherever i go, so i always feel pretty comfortable when i find my marks. But i also have my weakness, which is my hypersensibility because sometimes i can feel a bit overwhelmed and that’s when i need a bit of time for myself.
I do many activities like drawing, when i find some time, i put music on and start drawing for a few hours. Then i go to the gym, usualy 4 or 5 times in a week. I also find time for example do some makeup but more artistic and colorful. Plus i can cook, i love to make french crepes for example. But i’m pretty good at everything, i can do any dish no matter what it is. Since a few months i started playing guitar. And when i have time i also learn new languages, i started not a long time ago to learn korean and spanish. I will say that my favorite food are sushis but i also love fries. That’s what i prefer but I’m not complicated. For the holidays, i love halloween, I’m a huge fan of horror movie so that’s the perfect time to dress into our favorite chararcter and to watch a good horror movie with snacks. And for the family traditions, I love when it’s christmas because we find time to watch a movie together with our matching pyjamas then we open our presents at midnight.
I really hope that i will discover something totally new, contrary to my habits. I want to discover a new cultur and new traditions. I hope that after this experience i will gain more independence so i could be prepared to have my adult life. I know that this is a new beginning because i won’t know anybody, plus i will be somewhere i don’t totally speak the language but that’s what’s will make me discover even more about myself. And actually, i absolutely don’t have any preferences, I’m open at everything. I want to be surprised and just enjoy the experience and doesn’t want any expectetion where at the end i could be dissapointed so i just want to enjoy and i will see.
I also want to thanks you already for choosing me to be into your family and to host me during my exchange year !
Sincerely,
Thia
