Hi, auch wenns langsam langweilt Ich brauche unbedingt jemanden, der da mal einen Bilick drüber wirft und mich verbessert. Vielen, vielen Danke im voraus
Dear host family,
First of all I want to thank you for reading my letter and give me the chance to learn about your culture and the real “American way of live”. For giving you a first impression of me I want to start telling you about who I am.
My name is Elisa Wxxx I am 14 years old but on my arrival I will be 15. I live together with my mum, my dad and my two sisters Gxxxx and Lxxxx. Also we have got a dog called Blue and a rabbit. We live in a detached house in a little village called xxxxx that’s near Dortmund.
The wish to go half a year to the USA developed for about 7 month, but it first becomes serious as I told my parents about my plan. At the beginning they weren’t that happy about it, but unexpectedly fast they support me, specially my father.
I’ve never been to the USA but I always wanted to spend some time there. I’m so excited to learn something new about the land!
What interested me the most are the country’s diversity and the language but also the everyday life and the School system that is so different than the German. But especially the people who are said to be so open-hearted, optimistic and hospitable. I would like to see a fair because I heard so much about the American church and the community feeling or I would like to see a football game. Beside I want to get more self-confident and independent.
I’m going to a middle school called „xxx“ School starts 7.55 and ends at 1.10 but often I’ve got 9 lessons than I’m at home at about 4.30. My favorite subjects are German, English, PE and arts.
I do not play any musical instrument but I love music. I think I got that from my father.
After school and on weekends I meet friends or read also I like doing photographs and I enjoy cooking and baking! I played soccer for about 6 years but I stopped it now because I want to start something new, perhaps volleyball.
Friends are one reason why I like to go to school and if we meet on weekends we do bike tours, barbeque, play Volleyball or just talk.
I and my family get along very well, I’m very close to my older sister we often go shopping or go for a walk. I would not say that I am shy and if I am, than just in the beginning. But actually I am open minded and outgoing.
Finally, I would say that I really hope to hear from you and to see you soon. Lovely greetings from Germany!
Elisa
