's Letter

Hi future host family! My name is John, and I’m so excited about the opportunity to go to another country and learn new things! I’m really looking forward to attending High School, meeting new people, making friends, and being part of school activities like sports teams and clubs. I am very passionate about math and enjoy learning new things every day. If there is a chess club, science club, or even activities related to music or theater, I would love to participate and be involved in school life as much as possible. During the week, I usually have a structured routine. I go to school, focus on my classes, and always try to do my best academically. After school, I like to spend time studying, but I also enjoy relaxing by reading books, listening to music, or playing games. I believe it’s important to balance responsibilities and free time. I have a great relationship with my family at home. We support each other, spend time together, and I often help with daily tasks, especially in the kitchen. I really enjoy cooking and even like making homemade ice cream! These small moments are very important to me. In my free time, I love being active. I enjoy surfing and skating, and I would really like to join a track and field team at school. I also enjoy trying new activities and challenges. For my exchange experience, I hope to build a close and respectful relationship with my host family. I’m excited to learn about your culture, traditions, and daily life, and also share a bit of mine. I would love to spend time together, whether it’s having meals, watching movies, going out, or just talking about our days. Thank you for opening your home to me. I’m truly excited to meet you and become part of your family! Best regards, John
