Dear host family, Thank you for taking the time to read my application. With this letter I would like to help you to get to know me and to explain why I would love to spend the next 12 to 24 months with your family and take care of your children. My name is Ines and I live in a small village near the east cost of Germany. I am 17 years old (I will turn 18 on the 26th Juli 2019) and I have been brought up by my parents in a house with three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a living room in a village called “Oldersum“. I have a brother who is 19 years old and who also is my best friend. I will pass my Abitur, the German equivalent to the A-levels in June 2019 and after spending 12 years in school I would like to broaden my horizon by experiencing a new culture and meeting new people. I am a positive, kind-hearted, tolerant, responsible and tidy person. After moving out from home for a few months I have started helping out at home even more: I wash the dishes, do the laundry, cook meals and mow the lawn. I like cleaning and it won?t be a problem for me if I had a lot to do in your household. For the most time of my life my family had a lot of animals I took care of, like guinea pigs, rabbits, a dog and geckos (feeding them and cleaning their cages). I really like animals and I really care about the environment, that is why I want to do something with animals or the environment when I am older. Two years ago I completed an intership of two weeks at a kindergarten, where I looked after the kids, played with them and we sometimes did handcraft together. It really was fun and I?m looking forward to keeping on working with kids. My hobbies include driving my motorbike, meeting my friends, dancing and listening to music. I also enjoy watching movies and series and going to the cinema. I am currently taking my drivers license, which means that I will be able to drive at the age of 18 and that I have also acquired a first-aid-training-course. When my parents were younger, they used to live and work in South Africa for a year and they loved it really much, so they took me and my brother to see it as well in 2013. We made a tour from Johannesburg via Swaziland and the east cost to Cape Town and I have to say that South Africa is the most beautiful country I?ve ever been to and I?m looking forward to going back. I think working as an Au-pair would be the perfect opportunity for me to become even more experienced in working with kids. I would love to get to know the South African culture and improve my language skills. I would be very happy if you gave me the chance to live with you and become part of your family. I am looking forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Ines
