Iam already very excited about getting to know you. But, first of all, I would like to introduce myself to you.

My name is Joan.I am 26 years old and from the small city Eldoret in Kenya. With my parents,Leah (53) and Joseph (54),I have one brother and five sisters me being the second born of six.I am living in a house that is located in an area full of nature. We have got two cats and two rabbits, who love to cuddle all day. My father works as a manager at a small firm, my mother is a farmer. My brother Nick and my our lastborn sister are currently attending secondary school. Overall, we are a pretty large family, I have ten cousins.
I would describe myself as a reliable and caring person, who tries to make the best out of every situation. I like spending time with my friends; they are – as well as my family – very important to me. Always trying to help, I’m always there for them if they need me.
In my free time, I like to listen to music, go shopping or dance. Cooking is one of my favorite hobbies and I am also teaching young children at home.Furthermore, I enjoy reading a good book and singing – even though I cannot sing very well. Every summer, I supervise children at a local football camp. It is always a lot of fun!

At the moment, I work as an online tuitor.I enjoy this job very much, because I am able to bond with many of my customers. I also work as a waitress at town festivals and at a local restaurant.
For the past ten years, I took care of children of all ages from different families. I became very close to them and I cherish the time I have spent with them. When my brother was younger, I also took care of him, when our mum was working. Through this time, I have found out how much fun it is to have children around, I can’t imagine a life without them.
The reason why I want to go to another country as an au pair so as to get to know the other way of life as well as different cultures. Most importantly, it would be a great chance to spend an entire year taking care of children, Aging parents And of course, it would be great to improve my English skills as well.

I hope we can develop a good relationship, working and living together as a family. I would be very happy to experience an eventful year with you and your kids and family at large. I am looking forward to talking to you.

Yours sincerely,
JOAN
