Maximiliano

's Letter

Hello, my name is Maximiliano, everybody called me Max, I am a calm young man who enjoys family life, time with friends and my pets, I have two dogs, a Golden Retriever and a Schnauzer, I am a good student, respectful and affectionate, I have a little brother, so I don't feel uncomfortable interacting with children. We are a very restless and united family, always, every weekend there is a different panorama or activity. We go to the movies, we have barbecues, we play bowling, we go to events, we frequent different restaurants, we are gourmets and if we are at home we swim or watch movies or series all together with popcorn and chocolates. Another of our favorite activities is traveling, to the beach, the countryside or other countries. My father likes to arrive by plane and explore cities and towns by car; and if there are trains, the better. Cultural trips, like "Machupichu", and fun trips like the Caribbean. We love to discover new places and cultures. Anyway, my favorite city is still "New York". My mother is very close to me, she is almost my best friend. She is a fan of decoration and antiques, and loves creating spaces. He also paints in oils and acrylics, which is why my house is not conventional. My father, for his part, works a lot, he has a Construction Company, with Public and Private bidding; and in his free time, in addition to doing everything I have told you, he is also a fan of puzzles, board games and cards. My dogs are like brothers, they behave very well, they are a total part of this family and they move freely within our house, in fact they sleep inside the house. My twelve-year-old brother is my partner and I protect him. Physically we are very different, his hair is straight and his nose is upturned, he has a strong, charismatic, kind and very generous personality, he is an excellent child. We live in a two level house, it has five bedrooms and four bathrooms, it has a small but very nice garden with a pool that both we and my three-year-old Golden, Mango, really enjoyed. We have lived here for 5 years and a little more. We have a covered pergola, where we have an outdoor dining room that we really enjoyed all Spring and Summer. And sometimes at Christmas, since it's hot here, we have dinner outside and my mother fills it with lights. Christmas is my favorite time of the year, the tree, the smells, the food and obviously also the gifts, but being all together and laughing and giving each other things is a very incredible night. But it is the most beloved date for all of us. My grandmother, an expert, cooks and prepares the most delicious things. And my favorite dishes Pork with plum sauce, stuffed turkey, applesauce, creamed potatoes, corn with mayonnaise, and of course beef fillet with mushroom cream and bacon. We are very good eaters, on weekends we all have breakfast together, lots of eggs and toasted bacon. And if my grandmother is there, French toast or eggs rancheros, which only she knows how to prepare. On the second floor, we have our Movies and series area, we buy popcorn or Sushi, and we have watched thousands of series and movies together. Of all kinds, drama, fiction, action and comedies. In the Comedy area we are fans of Adam Sandler, we have seen all of his movies even more than once; the favorite “They are like children” both parts. The Halloween party here is quite boring, the candy they give out is bad, cheap and of poor quality, Chileans generally do not invest in good decoration, and it is a party that I have high expectations of being able to enjoy there, in addition to having a snowy Christmas I am very curious and eager to meet the family that chooses me. I hope they are similar to mine; loving, entertaining, sociable and who really like family celebrations, and activities inside and outside the home. I am a collaborator with the chores, at home I wash the dishes, I tidy my room, I vacuum, I take out the trash, and well whatever is asked of me. My mother recently bought her lawnmower; I haven't done that because she likes to do it while listening to music. Another characteristic of my house and my family is that there are speakers everywhere, we love music, we listen to it practically all day. And it's almost all music in English. From Guns & Roses, Elton John, Whitney, Coldplay, Elvis, The Beatles, Reggeaton, some Latin Music too...the music in my house is very varied. But you hear everything, a lot from the 80s; Even when we have dinner or lunch the music is in the background. While my father grills too. I am excited and very happy to be able to live this experience and I hope to be a pleasure and a contribution to you and to create bonds that allow me to feel and have a new family beyond borders.
