Hello,

I hope your doing well !

My name is Helene. I adore sports especially volleyball, skiing, running and walking. I also enjoy reading, drawing, painting, cooking, baking, playing piano and listening to music. My favorite foods are fruits like watermelon, pears, apples, raspberries and mango. I love to travel, my favorite vacation were in Croatia, Portugal and an island called Martinique. I really want to travel all around the world especially in Greece, Brazil, in the United States, in Peru and in Colombia. One of my favorite moment of the year is Christmas because every year with my dad side of the family we are meeting at my grandparent’s house to celebrate Christmas, for me it’s like a family tradition. I also love learning and trying new things and going to the museum.

I am sweet, full of empathy and I love helping other people. I always cheer on people I love and I always see the positive everywhere and in everyone. I think I could adapt myself easily to another country and another family. My biggest weakness is that I have a low confidence in myself and I hope that this experience could help me fix it. My biggest faults are that I am clumsy, I get stressed easily, when I do something I can easily get distracted and also sometimes I can talk a lot.

I have a great relationship with my parents, I love talking to my mom because she is really understanding and I like to play board games with her. I really enjoy cooking and playing videogames with my dad. I have many things in common with my two sisters and I adore spending times with them. We play board games, we paint and we do sports together. After my parents separated, my dad met my stepmother and they had a child together. I love playing with him because he is funny, sweet and full of energy.

I would love to participate to this program because I want to learn more about the American culture, the traditions, the habits and to know the lifestyle of an American family. I also want to improve my general knowledge by doing, learning and trying new things. I hope that it could help me become more independant and to have a better self-confidence. I also want to improve my english and I want to be more comfortable while speaking, I think it could help me a lot to realise one of my biggest dream which is to become a pilot and for this job I would need to be bilingual. I would like to share good moments and good memories with my host family because I think this experience and the memories it would bring me are something I would keep in my heart forever. I hope that I could bring joy and my happiness to your home.

I would like to thank you for giving me your time. Thank you to maybe give me the opportunity to try this wonderful experience.

I wish you a nice day,

Goodbye !
