Hello!

My name is Jimena, I'm 15 years old. I live in a small city in the middle-north of Spain. I live with my parents and brother, but he's now living elsewhere because of studies. I share a close bond with my brother and also enjoy my relationship with my grandparents. I find joy in spending time with them, playing board games, watching movies, and helping with household chores when is needed. Cooking is a shared activity with my grandfather, who knos about gardening and making various types of bread.

Concerning my parents, I love watching sports, particularly football (soccer), with my father. On the other hand, I enjoy spending time with my mother, watching movies, eating popcorn, and listening to music together. Evenings are dedicated to watching series and discussing their plots. We play video-games together like Mario Kart and dance to music.

My hobbies are playing tennis, expressing myself through dance, and creating TikTok content with friends. I am also passionate about learning new languages, with English being a focus. During the summer, I enjoy swimming and basking in the sun with friends. I aspire to find personal happiness, achieve professional goals in a bilingual setting, establish international connections, and eventually build a family. My desire is to explore diverse cultures, learn from them, and create lasting friendships. My extroverted nature seeks to avoid conflicts and foster amicable relationships, recognizing that friendships can be challenging at times.

While certain activities, like reading, do not captivate my interest, I believe it's because I haven't yet found the right book. My love for cooking, especially experimenting with new recipes, my favorite food is my mother's macaroni with tomato, meat, and cheese. I love any kind of foods and cousines like for example:Spanish, Italian, and American foods.

Music and sports are my passions, allowing me to explore diverse musical genres while staying active. I am an avid football (soccer) fan, with FC Barcelona being my favorite team since childhood, a shared bond with my father and brother. When my team loses I try to not be angry and believe that not always you can win.

I can't wait to meet you and share this new adventure with you.

Thank you for reading my letter and for thinking of hosting me and be part of this aventure with me. 

Interested in hosting—whether 6-8 weeks or the entire school year?
