Dear Host Family, Thank you very much to welcome me into your home and your family. I am very excited to meet you and spend a year with you. I’m really looking forward to coming to United States for my exchange year. This program seems perfect for discovering new cultures, traditions, new places, monuments, cities and try new foods. My sister, Mathilde, has already left with this program 4 years ago. She had an incredible experience there and came back with only good memories. She made me want to live this experience too. I would also like to discover your town and your school. I swam for 8 years, and also played tennis. I like badminton and basketball. I love dancing, cooking and doing creative activities such as drawing, DIY and other things. I also really love animals. I often walk and look after my sister’s dog. Another passion I have is doing hairstyles such as braids. I often do my friends and my sister’s hair. I love travelling and learning new things. When I go on vacation with my family, we visit a lot. We like to discover new countries. We are interested in people, their culture and their way of life. We discovered countries such as the Netherlands, Croatia, Italy, Spain, Portugal, Germany and England. I would love to do activities with you, like going on walk or playing board games at home. I can't wait meet you and improve my english by discussing with you, this won't be a problem since I'm very social, I love to talk and I make good jokes :) Thank you again for welcoming me and I cannot wait to start this amazing adventure with you ! Best wishes Louise
