2 weeks in my first host family

Hello!

On 15th of July, Friday at 9am we left Hofstra uni and we started our trip to host families. We were on place after 3pm. My host dad with a daughter took me from Newton. They have me flowers and a little poster "Welcome Pati". We went to one city cause the girl had classes there - help develop her skills. Then, host dad took me home and left me alone, cause he needed to go somewhere! I was in shock....new place, new people and me alone ^^ I was so angry and sad :P after 1 hour the host mum with the kid came back and we went for a dinner....

During the weekend we went to Marblehead where we were boating and also swimming. On Sunday - big grocery shopping and testing me as a driver :)

What I was doing there? Hmm during the day I had off so I spent time talking with my friends and family and also I used to go to the gym and swimming pool.

One weekend, I spent in Boston with French and German girl ;)

I also met some Polish girls and we hung out ;)

After one week I decided to go rematch - change family. Why? Host parents were really nice to me, they were pround of me as a driver and also my job..... but I was a bit bored there and the girl was 11 years old. I realised I want to spend a year with young kids...

On Monday, 25th of July, my lcc (local childcare concultant) came to our house to talk in general. And then, I talked that I don't wanna be there, I feel so sad but I feel unhappy....They were so dissapointed and angry....I spent 4 more days in their house - till Friday. The atmosphere wasn't as before, obviously ;) but I did my job as good as I could.

On Friday I went to my lcc's house and I spent a week there - looking for a new host family. Playing with my lcc's daughter and spending time in Boston ;)


I had few families on my profile - from Long Island, Utah, Georgia.......and finally I got one who interested me, in NY ;) After few conversation, they told me they want me as an au pair! I was s happy!

Before I left, my lcc took me to Boston, because I wanted to explore more of this city - I am not sure if I come back there - I have other places on my list to visit :)

On Saturday, 6th of August, I took a train from Boston to New Rochelle and I met my family there!

I was soooo excited and happy :)  It was a great decision!
