Hello ! My name is Valentin, and I am very excited to introduce myself and to be a part of your family in the near future. I hope this letter will give you a good idea of who I am, where I come from, and what I am looking forward to during my time with you. I have always dreamed of living abroad and experiencing life in a different culture, and I am grateful for the opportunity to do so with your family. I’m so excited to be with you! I’m a curious and friendly person who loves to learn new things, whether it's about different cultures, languages, or experiences. I’m responsible, easygoing, and enjoy spending time with others. I’m also quite independent and like to stay organized, but I’m always open to sharing fun moments together. I believe in building strong relationships and I’m really looking forward to creating beautiful memories with you in the USA . I live in France, where I am a high school student, and I really enjoy my studies. At school, I am more interested in English, History and especially Geography because I love discovering the world. I am passionate about learning new languages and cultures, which is one of the main reasons why I am so excited to stay with your family. I am currently studying French, English and German in school and willing to become fluent in English and that's another reason why I want to be part of this program. One of my main hobby is playing badminton. I love playing with my friends; we often compete and when i play i'm so happy. I spend a lot of my free time reading manga , i find it very fascinating. I also enjoy spending time with my friends we often hang out, go to the restaurant, play videogames and many other things. I value the time I spend with those I care about, and I am looking forward to sharing some of these moments in the USA. Now, let me tell you a little bit about my family back home. I live with my two parents , they are separated but they have a good relationship, and we enjoy spending time together we watch movies, cook together, visit Museums. I have one brother, who is 10 years old, we are also very close, and we have a great time together, even though we sometimes argue, like all siblings do :).I also have a cat. His name is Polo,and i love him so much for sur i will miss him.I'm the only one in the family that he loves. I think he considers me like his father and if you a cat i would take a lot of time to take care oh him. I’m very grateful for the love and support of my family, and they are excited for me to have this opportunity to live abroad and experience life in another culture. My parents have lived abroad and they always speak well of it to me. I wanted the same experience. While I love my family and appreciate everything they have done for me, I am also excited to become a part of your family. I believe that staying with you will be a wonderful learning experience, and I am eager to understand more about your culture, traditions, and lifestyle. I look forward to learning about your daily life . I am also very interested in exploring your country’s history, food, and celebrations because a heard so much about your contry . My brother and I are listening to a podcast of 50 episodes and each episode is on 1 state of the united states,it was my mom who introduced us to it because she loved it. I hope to fully immerse myself in your culture and share some of my own cultur with you, such as French food. i am sure we will have a good relationship, and I want you to feel good with me. If at any point I feel unsure about something or have questions, I will make sure to let you know and ask for help. I will do my best to respect your family’s rules and customs, . I want to make sure that my time with you is as enjoyable and comfortable as possible for both of us. I’m very grateful for the love and support of my family, and they are excited for me to have this opportunity to live abroad and experience life in another culture.They both lived during their syudies : abroad my dad at Honk Kong in Asia and my mom in the USA at Boston.
