Dear host family,
I'm Jone, in this letter I'm going to be talking about myself.
My name is Jone, I'm 14 years old. I live in Spain and I was born in Spain as well. I live with my parents, and I also live with my little sister. We live in a flat, in the middle of the city. I have 2 grandmothers and 1 grandfather. They both live near me and I love visiting them and cooking with them.

Now let's talk about my hobbies. I love playing the piano and the guitar. I also like playing the ukulele. I really like music . Apart from that, I love painting and doing sports. I row, I train 4 days a week for 2 hours. I also like going to the mountains, running and swimming. I really like keeping my body moving. In the winter I like going skiing, I love the snow. I really enjoy reading and I also love learning new things. For example, I like learning languages. I speak 3 languages and I'm currently learning 1. I know Basque, Spanish and English, and I'm learning German, but I'm not so good at it. I guess this is not a hobby but I love little kids, I love playing with them and taking care of them... . I also have a good time hanging out with my friends, we normally go to the mall or hang out in a house to watch a film or cook. We also sometimes go to the cinema.

Apart from that, I'm going to talk about my life intentions. Since I was 5 years old, my dream has been becoming a heart surgeon, so to achieve that I would like to go to university and study medicine. Apart from my dream job, I am also interested in traveling. It has always been a dream of mine to see the world, or go backpacking around the world as well.

To continue, I'm going to talk about my intentions with this exchange program. With this program I'm trying to get out of my comfort zone, I'm trying to make friends, to learn about new cultures and live surrounded by new cultures as well. To mature, to become more independent and of course to have a great time.im also trying to explore a new country, to build a good relationship with my host family, and to learn how to be apart from my real family for such a long time. And to improve my English too.

In addition I'm going to talk about my passions. I think that my biggest passion is rowing. I literally like getting up every morning depending if I have training or not. I love my rowing friends, we regularly hang out together, and we always have a good time. Another pasion is school. Some of my best friends go to my same school so I really enjoy going to school every day.

Jone.
