aber nun zu meinem Letter:
Dear hostfamily
although we are not familiar to one
anonther it is very kind that you took
the time to read this letter. In order to give you an image of me I like to
introduce you into my life.
My name is Luise and it would be a
pleasure to get to know you better as my possible hostfamily. I am 14 (jetzt 15) years old
and live with my mum, who is divorced to my dad in a house in a city near ***, called *** (population nearly xxxxx).
My mum work as a medical doctor and
my dad is computer engineer. I have an
older sister, who is attending the university in ***, but has moved out. We spend a weekly evening
together, on that we cook, study or play games. This is an important time for
me. Also we like to go visit the cinema or concerts together.
On the weekends we live with my
mother’s new boyfriend and his family.
We are all getting along great, also with his daughter, who is of the
same age like me. A special family time
I like is for example on Sundays, when the whole family is having lunch
together and sits after lunch together and talks. We are not religious, but it
would not be a problem to going to the church.
During the week I visit the **** secondary school. (Wenn ich diesen Teil so lassen würde, wüsstet ihr sofort, auf welche Schule ich gehe ;), deshalb lasse ich ihn weg) My favorite
subjects in school are currently PE, Music, Drama and English. I love speaking
English and that is clearly a reason, why I want to make an exchange year -
speaking better the language and understand
English speaking people better. I have good grades, but I could do better. My
classmates are pretty cool and we all have a good relationship. During the
lunchbreak we have a lot of fun and laugh together.
My best friend Ann, who is also in
my grade, would describe me as a funny, lovely, curious and sometimes crazy
friend. Other things I do with friends is for example playing music, making
videos or going to the cinema. Speaking of music, this takes a large amount of
my interests. I take guitar lessons and play the piano. I like to listen to
music, mostly Alternative and Rock music.
I like doing sports , for example
playing basketball, volleyball and actually I play American Football. But do
not worry. We play the soft alternative with flags. Maybe I can tell you
anytime more about this. Also I will patiently learn all there is about
icehockey, I would also try it out.In the winter my favorite sport is
definitely snowboarding. But sadly I can do this just one week a year, because
then my family makes winterholidays in the alps, which is every time one of the
best weeks during the year. It makes so much fun and I am always sad when this
week is over.
Like all teenagers I like watching
TV and movies, also I try to watch some original versions, to improve my
English, for example Harry Potter and the Hunger games. I like surfing the
internet, but not to excessive.
My decision for Canada was always
ahead, because I read a lot about and saw many pictures and videos. But that is
just on a screen, but I want to see all of this in real life. I am very enthused
about the beautiful landscape and the many-sidedness of your home country.
Maybe you can show me some of them. Also I want to experience the school
system, which is different to ours and in my opinion better than the German one.It is also very
important to gain cultural experience. In this way I can say I really want to
be an exchange student in highschool, because the family life is more lovely and
more intense than living in a dorm in college. This is why I want it now and
not after the diploma. After returning from Canada, I want to finish the German
secondary school and attend the university. Even though I am undecided what I
want to study but an academic education is a good base I think. Maybe Canada
can inspire me what I will do later. I
just want to make the best of my life and I want to start with the exchange to
Canada.
Like all people I have some bad
habbits. Even though I help at home, for example cleaning my room, the kitchen,
taking out the trash, washing my clothes and clearing the dishwasher. But my mother sometimes has to remind me to do it and
in special situations there is backtalk.
I am not this girly girl who needs
one hour in front of the mirror with tons of make up and am also not mobilphone
and internet addicted. I am a lucky, funny and casual girl , who likes to talk
but also knows when to listen to. Furthermore I would say that I am creative,
unique, spontaneous, self-confident and honest person, because I despise phoney
and liars.
This is only a letter, but for me
it is all of the impressions that I can give you. Even though it is just a
handwritten (ja ich habs handschriftlich gemacht) piece paper at the moment,
it might turn out to be the beginning of a very special relationship, which
could last more than just one year.
Thank you really much for reading this letter. Hopefully you will also have this
impression and you will take this as a chance
to become my host family.
So das wars auch schon. Ich hoffe ihr konntet euch ein wenig inspirieren lassen ;)
