Dear Family,

in this letter I would like to tell you a little bit about me. I have 2 older brothers (one who is 4 years older, and one who is 2 years older), and wonderful parents. Besides that, I have two dogs and a lot of neighborhood cats. Spending time with my siblings comes easy to me. My older brother sometimes helps me with my studies and takes me on various outings (like to the cinema or for a meal). As for the younger one, we enjoy playing soccer, watching movies, and going for walks. I love spending time with my family, especially on our trips together. We travel a lot in our country but also in other countries. I love winter because I can go snowboarding and ice skating, which we often do as a family during the winter.

I am a very open-minded person, I love meeting new people especially by trying new hobbies and through just traveling. I don’t have many fears, but I’m mainly afraid of spiders. I love sweets, especially all kinds of chocolate. I have made very strong friendships during my adventure with dance (that’s why I would love to try in Cheerleaders) but also through living in a boarding school. I love amusement parks and various other extreme things. I try not to overwhelm myself with stress or anxiety before trying new things.

I would like to learn as many languages and traditions of different countries as possible, but I am most interested in improving my English. Two years ago I started reading, and when I get bored, I often reach for books. My favorite holiday is Christmas, especially the associated atmosphere. In addition to dancing, I get a lot of pleasure from playing volleyball, which we play a lot during the vacations at the lake. I am a huge fan of Italian cuisine especially pasta. I have been to many countries but I definitely ( at least for now) remember France and especially the people I met there. Despite being a pescatarian, it doesn’t cause much trouble for my family because I often like to test my cooking skills in the kitchen. My favorite dishes are mainly pasta and lasagna, but I also love dishes with spinach, broccoli, basil pesto, pancakes, sushi and various salads.

My main goal during the exchange is of course to improve my English, but also to get to know many interesting people, places and traditions. Take as many photos/videos as possible to have memories.
To see what a typical life in the U.S. looks like. Of course, I’d like to try new foods. That’s a great way to explore different cuisines and flavors.
I hope that I have interested you at least a little in my person and that you will want to show me your lifestyle. Thank you for reading this letter and thank you for giving me this opportunity to be in your family <3

Kind regards,

Amelia
