ALY, 29 YEARS

Hi, I'm Aly from Ukraine,of Ukrainian origin. I'm currently in Sweden on my aupair visa. I was aupairing in my first family for 6 months. I'm looking for a new family in Sweden now.
I'm very excited with the idea of taking part in this program as it gives new opportunities to see the world and get to know new culture and new people. Living in a family and following the traditions native to its members and the country opens a whole new outlook. I'd like to become a part of a small world (which a family is) and I see being an au-pair more like a fun entertainment rather than work. The idea of being of use to someone who needs help is also very heartwarming.
I want to integrate with the family and not feel like an outsider, and hope they will treat me on equals. I want to learn something new from the people I will be living with and maybe to contribute something useful from myself.
I hope I will be able to learn about another culture and will be involved in the activities of the family lifestyle. I want to connect with the children I'll be taking care of, and learn something from them and teach them something too by giving a nice example to them in the first place.
I expect both parties - me and my future family - will be able to create strong bonds and stay on friendly terms long after I move out from them:)
