Dear American Family,

Hi, I'm Irem and I'm a 15 year old student from Turkiye. For my friends and family I've got a funny, supportive, reliable, adventurous, thoughtful, polite personality.

Now I want to talk about a little bit of my family. My mother is 45 years old she is working at a hospital. My father is also 45 years old he is working in a office with his friend. I dont have any siblings but I've got 3 cats. I have a lots of activites that I really like to do my parents. With my family really like to go shopping, go to operas and theaters, do some gardening, singing, traveling, go to movie theater, go to some concerts. In my home I have some responsibilities they are: watering flowers, giving food and water to cats and helpin my mom to set the table.

I have some interests that I really like to do I can give some examples of them.I really like to play piano, singing song, gardening, learning new languages, watching fims and reading book, traveling, cooking, watching football (soccer), voleyball and basketball matches, visiting museums, ancient sites, art exhibitions, going concersts, operas, theaters and movie theathers and some times drawing (I'm really bad at drawing).These are my interests.

I have a girl group that includes 4 girls. We are friends for long years and they are my best friends. We love to to things together let me give some examples we really like to go cafes, go concerts, watch movies, celebrate brithdays, play pinball, go to shopping mall, and do picnic.

I love the city that I'm living I can describe this city with some sentences. Its really hot in summers but summers is the best time in here also the people who lives here are very friendly and helpful if you need any help in outside they will run to help you or when you greet someone sitting next to you on the subway, you will find yourself in a very friendly and entertaining conversation without realizing it. Also in my city we have lots of festivals, concerst, art exhibitions, street concerts. And finally you can find everything in my city such as beaches, ancient places, shopping malls, camping areas, bazaars...

In the future I want to be an computer enginer and work at a big computer company and with my salary I want to travler the world with my with my loved ones.

From my exchange program journey, I want to know new cultures, meet new people, see new places and add new things to my knowledge.

I'm looking forward to meet with my host family :):)
