's Letter

Hi dear host family, I am very excited about the opportunity to become part of your family and to share this dream with you. I do not see this exchange only as an opportunity to live abroad, but also as a way to truly create a bond with new people, connect with a different culture, build meaningful relationships, and grow as a person. I consider myself a very open-minded, artistic, and caring person. I love spending time with people, having conversations, going out, and learning about different perspectives. I really appreciate family time, whether it is having meals together, watching a movie, traveling, or simply talking about our days. I believe that even small moments make a house feel like a home. Music is a very important part of my life. I enjoy singing and playing instruments such as the guitar and piano, and music helps me express my emotions and stay motivated. I also love pop culture, movies, shows, traveling, and creating videos for my online account. I enjoy sharing recommendations and discovering new things with others, and I think this is a fun way to connect and bond. I am very interested in joining your routine and learning about your family traditions and daily life. I would love to participate in activities together, help around the house, and be an active member of your family. I believe that living with a host family is the best way to truly experience a new culture, and I am very grateful for this opportunity. Most of all, I really hope to build a genuine connection with you and keep you in my life for a long time. I want to learn from you, share my culture with you, and create memories that I will cherish for my whole life. Thank you so much for opening not only your home, but also your hearts. I am very excited to meet you and become part of your family. Warm regards, Maria
