Letter to my Host FamilyI come from a large family that I adore and love very much! I have a rabbit that my family and I adore. He's very furry and small, beige in color, and he's already four years old! My father also has a tiny white dog; he's so cute. I consider these pets to be a big part of my life; I love them so much. I love playing volleyball, especially with my friends on our school's team! I also love to read, especially young adult romance novels. I love them because they let me disconnect and imagine new stories, but I like fantasy, horror, and mystery as well! When I grow up, I'd love to be a judge and study law. Sometimes I think about all the little new things I'm going to discover with you: from trying typical snacks from the local supermarket to learning how you organize your daily life, your schedules, and your customs. I hope we can build a close relationship and create memories together that we will cherish forever. It would be a true honor to become part of your family and embark on this adventure with you!
