Dear future host family,
My name Is Camila , I am 25 years old and I live in colombia specifically in the city of medellin, a beautiful city full of happy people and delicious food ,i live here with my mom and my sister ,My mother's name is paola and she works as a therapist ,my father's name is Jhon and he works as a constructor in his own company, he live whit his wife and her son.
I have got a young sister isabella She is 20 and she is studying medicine. We are a very close, sociable and communicative family.
let me tell you a little about me!
I'm very creative and I love art, I also really like makeup, i love dogs too , I like to discover new things: people, places, cultures. I'm studying architecture at the university, I am a committed, multi-skill, sweet and flexible young woman. I I like traveling a lot, I believe that it ´s a good way to meet new people if you travel alone. I love dancing, mostly trending music, I usually listen to different musical styles, I like doing crafts in my relax time. Also, I use to go to the gym or do many outside activities , i like nature places.
As for my experience with children, I am the oldest one in my family so I have been always taking care of little cousin when his parents were at work, At school when I was in my last year I did my social work in a daycare center teaching children and taking care of them. I have been always surrounded children!
I have experience in caring for children from 6 months to thirteen years, girls and boys too. In 2019 I took care of , 2 beatifoul girls who was 2 years old , and 5 years old The experience was great. I used to wake up the children, have breakfast together, help them to get dressed, going to the pool or play play at tea time because they liked it.
I took care of Sebastian my cousin in 2017,at that time he was 4 years old , who loved watching how I made plasticine figures to later trying to make them on his own. was a very responsable boy so I used to help him in his homework and when he finished we used to go to the swimming pool. Sometimes or watch movies , finally, this year I was working with 3
children from 5 to 12 years old in different houses taking care of them .
Also, I would add that I have driven since i was 16 years old when I got the license, reason why I could be a good option if I ´d have to take them
somewhere.
I think Living away from home ,it’s going to be a good experience to mature as person. I think it’s a very good opportunity to learn more about myself , I'm delighted to have the opportunity to improve my English, meet your lifestyle, your habits and your country, which I greatly admire. And what better way than doing what I love! I know that to live with your children and with you, in a different country like USA, will be a great opportunity to learn everything they can teach me every day. They learn a lot of us, but we learn more from them than we think. To me, it's wonderful see them growing up with us and learning, litle by little, to be more independent. also I love working with children because they know how to get the best out of myself and I try to teach them to do their best. It is a very rewarding job.
I hope to have a great cultural exchange, I want to be able to improve my English and if you think it's a good idea I could introduce your children to Spanish, the second most spoken language in the world!
I am so excited with the opportunity to know you better and to be a member of your family. I hope you had fun reading my letter and knowing
a bit more about me and my dream.
I look forward to hearing from you!
All of the best,
