JOHANNA, 21 YEARS

Dear host family, first of all thanks for taking your time and reading this. My name is Johanna Overbeck, I am 18 years old and I look forward to spending time with your family for a year. I would like to become an au pair because I really love to play and to do things with kids. I babysit children since 2015 and I also worked at a school for two weeks, so I have experience. I've been working as a volunteer member in our parish since I was 14 and, for example, prepare nativity plays with the children. I would love to become a part of your family and to get to know you, your culture, your language, your traditions and so on. I am a very open minded and loving person and I would like to help you with the kids, the house... I personally love to care for kids because I think that they can give me as well so many things as I can help them to grow in live. I love to see them smiling, laughing and joking with me, but I can also give them emotional support on hard days. For me personally my family, friends and my girlfriend are very important and I think it won't be easy to be far away from them for this time, but when I am happy in my host family it will be a lot easier. I also think that it's a great experience and chance to get to know new people and a new culture and I think I will have a great time with you. I hope you liked reading this and got a first impression of me. I would love to hear from you and to get to know your family. Sincerely, Johanna Overbeck
