Hello, First of all, my name is Malhia and I live in France. So, I want to go in high school and live this amazing experience to discover your culture, your way to live. Be in contact with American students, discover your traditions, celebrate a traditional Thanksgiving, a prom, be integrated in a family like any American will fulfill all my wishes. I think I can fit with American way of life because it’s a dream for me to live in United States ! This stunning experience of ten months will allow me to become bilingual and maybe work there in the future. I think that I could also bring you a lot from my good mood and my French culture. I like family times, doing board games, bowling parties, walking in the forest or by the ocean… So, going on adventure. I like animals and I’ll like to have a dog like a cocker, an Australian shepherd or a golden retriever. I find dogs so cute that I would really enjoy taking him for walks and giving him lots of cuddles. I have dreamed for years of being a cheerleader, of attending American football or baseball games. One day, I’ll like to learn surf. I practice sports since many years. I did rhythmic gymnastics for eight years whose five competitive years with three championships. I followed with admiration the return of Simone Biles during the Paris Olympics. I was very impressed by her jumps and figures. Actually, I do competitive acrobatic trampoline and theater in conservatory. I also train children from five to nine years old on the trampoline. I really like to do ice skating and rollers. I like to admire sunsets, make barbecues, eat sushies, watching movies and series like Friends which I am a fan of. I took so much pleasure to find my friends and do shopping. I like roller costers. Furthermore, I love travels ! Thanks to work privileges of my mom, I’ve already had the chance to discover Quebec, Rio de Janeiro and the United States : New York, Florida and New Orleans. I often travel to Guadeloupe in the west Indies where my dad comes from to meet my grandmother, my cousins… Also, I have a little brother who is two years less than me and we are very close. I think that I am going to miss so much the French baguette. There’s not much I don’t like except the smell of cigarettes, hunting and reptiles. I got my brevet (= GCSEs) diploma with the very good mention during my senior year in middle school. I did the choice to pass a part of the oral in English to increase my grade. Moreover, I like to challenge myself. I am in the European section of my high school which allows me to practice two extra hours in English (1h of oral + 1h in the mathematics subject). I also took the A.M.C speciality (English, world, contemporary) and Italian classes with Spanish. As you can see, I love foreign languages. I have been elected representative delegate for four years. I am a hard working student who has the mention « congratulation ». After, I would like to be an international press secretary or maybe a journalist. Thank you for reading my letter until the end, and I hope I will get some news from you soon in the order to get to know you better. Your sincerely, Malhia
