's Letter

Dear American Family, Greetings!! Honorable host family. I am the one writing this letter to you. I am a 15 year old teenager studying in class 10th. I have family of five members including my parents, my brother and my aunt. Playing badminton, cricket, board games, indoor games are some of the activities I enjoy doing with my family. I help my mother in household chores and I help my brother in studies. Moreover, I enjoy reading magazines and newspaper in my free time. I also do calligraphy in leisure time. I am interested in baking and painting. I have a very small but a good friend circle. I enjoy playing indoor games, and watching movies and TV shows with my friends. I am a person who loves to learn and explore about new cultures. My city is a historical city. It is well known as the "city of flowers". Here you will find locals wearing traditional dresses and communicating in Pashto. In the future, I have plans to do FSC in computer science and after gra􀀲d to appear in the CSS exam for the BS-17 grade. I am very enthusiastic to spend my one year in the US as a cultural ambassador and represent my rich and delicate culture. I would like to share my culture with the Americans and learn their culture and traditions. I will also like to do fun activities with my American friends. I am very excited to spend one year with you guys. Lastly, I would like to thank you in anticipation for considering me as a member of your family. As an exchange student I am excited to learn about American Culture. I hope to be a really good representative of my culture and also hope to learn and understand your traditions wholeheartedly. It would be an honor for me to learn more about American history, Cuisines, Lifestyle, etc. Thank you once again for opening your home for me and I hope that we will have a wonderful experience together. Maryam
