Hobbies: I love every kind of sport. I played tennis, football and did karate for many years. Now I swim and I go to the gym. Sometimes during weekends I ride a bike or skateboard. I used to play on electric guitar and I hope to play again someday. In school I like biology and everything about humans because in the future I would like to help people and become a physical therapist or massage therapist. This profession is ideal for the future because thousands of IT professionals and other sedentary professions will have back problems. That's why sport is so important to me and in the future combining that with knowledge. On the other hand, I like animals very much. My mother and I regularly visit the animal shelter and help by walking the dogs.

Hobbies: soccer, e-sport, film ( fesivals -volunteer enthusiast) gym, travelling, cuisines, water-sports like surfing, jetskis etc. , i like to play basketball and i love dogs, music, i can edit videos Allergies: No allergies Special Diet: No special diet Self-Description: My name is Adam, and I'm on the cusp of turning 17. I'm known for my calm demeanor and laid-back personality. However, despite having a tendency towards laziness, I have recently embraced a more active lifestyle. Now, I find myself hitting the gym and playing soccer with my friends more often than not. I also relish spending time outdoors, taking long walks with my dog through the forest trails. In my downtime, I thoroughly enjoy cooking, with spaghetti being my signature dish. I favor warm, sunny weather and find that the cold saps my energy and motivation. My interests are varied - from soccer, which I've grown to consider as my hobby, to listening to music, spending time on my computer, or simply hanging out with friends. I also love cycling and water sports like surfing and jet skiing, always up for an adrenaline rush. Although I am not much of a club-goer, preferring the comfort of home instead, I am keen on meeting new people and making meaningful connections during my upcoming year in the USA. My goal is to improve my English, learn more about American culture, and explore various interesting places, as I've always dreamt of living abroad. My interest in an active lifestyle has been influenced in part by my grandparents. My grandfather, a well-known actor, Andrzej Seweryn, embodies resilience and passion, constantly busy with theater or film set. My grandmother, Katarzyna Kubacka-Seweryn, organizes a film festival, and her energetic approach to life is genuinely inspiring. Hence, during my time in the USA, I would love to be with an active family who enjoys biking or dining out. It's not just about learning a new language and culture, but also about having memorable experiences and growing both personally and acadically in this new environment. My dream is to have a great time with my host family, at school, and overall, to make the most of this exciting opportunity. Special Requests: No click here to learn more about hosting Adam |

Anton male, 16 years |
![]() |
Hobbies: Anton's hobbies are sports and music. 1.) He has been a member of a local football club for many years. Last year, he also started playing volleyball and now practices twice a week. He's also an excellent skier and snowboarder (highest level) since he has often taken skiing and snowboarding classes during the holidays. He's also good at swimming. 2.) In addition to that, Anton has been playing the piano for about 9 years. He's participated in several competitions (Jugend musiziert) and has won first prizes. Allergies: house dust allergy (very mild form) Special Diet: No special diet Self-Description: My most important character traits are my ability to make friends quickly and my positive attitude towards other people. Furthermore I think that I am also an open and non-judgmental person. When I want to achieve something that I can't do yet (regardless of whether it's at school or outside of it), I can get very ambitious and don't give up easily. However, if my efforts do not lead to success quickly enough, I tend to get frustrated. But that often means that I get even more involved in tasks and challenges in order not to experience this disappointment. In my free time when there’s no homework to do, I am a good humored and very relaxed person. I also like to do a variety of different sports and spend a lot of time with my friends. I prefer to do that outside. I also enjoy spending time with my family (both my parents and sister, as well as my grandparents, uncles, aunts and cousins). Another important part of my life is music. Not only have I been playing the piano for over 9 years, I also like listening to music. My favorite genres in this regard are pop and hip hop. It’s not a problem for me to get in touch with other people, on the contrary: I am very communicative and like to exchange ideas with others or have discussions with them. I have a stable and long-existing circle of friends with whom I do a lot. We usually get along really well. But when there are disagreements, I can also handle criticism and I am not resentful. During my year abroad, I am looking forward to meeting new teenagers and making friends from different cultures and origins. I am also curious what life in a completely different continent will be like. Another hobby of mine is sports (soccer, volleyball, swimming, skiing and snowboarding). I have been a member of a local soccer team for about 8 years. Given that I enjoy this ball sport a lot, I even acquired a coaching license in 2022 and I am now officially entitled to teach soccer to children and young people. In addition to that, I love playing volleyball. I am currently a member of a volleyball team and we practice twice a week. During winter, my family and I often go to the Alps. I started learning skiing when I was 5 years old and I still go skiing and snowboarding at least 2 weeks every year.

Hobbies: Allergies: No allergies Special Diet: vegetarian Self-Description: My name is Antonia and I am 16 years old. What I'm looking forward to the most about going on an exchange year is propably being in a completely new environment and getting to know new people, a different culture, a different way of thinking and living and also maybe discovering a new side of myself. Eventhough not knowing anyone or anything when I arrive is probably also what I find the scariest. Another thing I'm looking forward to is practicing english by speaking it 24/7. As for my hobbies, for the last year I've been into musicals and recently I spend a lot of time listening to musicals on Spotify. I also enjoy reading mainly fantasy novels. Currently I'm reading "Oathbringer" from the "Stormlight Archive". Another thing I like is playing video games, though mainly single player games like " Horizon Forbidden West" or "The legend of Zelda Breath of the wild ".

Hobbies: Gaming Mini painting Allergies: No allergies Special Diet: No special diet Self-Description: I’d describe myself as a rather calm and a bit reclusive person, at least around people I don’t know very well. Around friends who I know well, I am a lot more open, but it takes some time for me to get close to new people. My personal interests include mainly video games and mini painting. Mini painting simply means painting miniature figures. So far, I’ve only ever painted miniatures from Games Workshop using colors from Citadel and Game Color. For my exchange year, I’m thrilled to get to know American culture and the English language better. I feel like America is something you hear a lot about all the time, but you don’t really know all that much about its culture and people. The other big reason I’d like to go to America is because I’d like to improve on my English. I know the language pretty well already and I believe it can only help to expand on that.

Daria female, 15 years |

Hobbies: Hobby: modern & jazzdance Reading Interests: chearleading, traveling Allergies: No allergies Special Diet: No special diet Self-Description: I`m Daria, I have brown long hair and brown eyes with a little green in them. I`m currently 5´4 feet tall and have pretty light skin. I´ll probably be a little shy if you get to know me at first but after a while it gets better. I love to talk (sometimes I also talk a little too much) about things I and others like and about feelings. I would say I am a nice person or at least I`m always trying to be the nicest possible in the situation. I`m a pretty funny and open girl with the right friends. Sometimes I can also be very lazy or tired but that is the point where I just need some time for myself. Unfortunately, I can also quickly get angry if someone says or does something I don`t like, well but hopefully that won´t cause a lot of trouble. I took dancing classes for 6 years, which has also become one of my favourite activities and I believe I was pretty good at it too, but sadly I had to stop dancing because some of the people in my dance group said mean things about me behind my back so that I didn`t feel comfortable anymore. I`m currently hoping to find a new dance group so I can carry out my talent again. Sometimes I also write letters to myself to express my feelings and let go of the pressure I and probably a lot of people have kept in themselves, that`s why I also really like to read poetry books. I`m looking forward to finding a lot of new friends on my exchange year and to trying out new things while having a lot of fun and I hope it will just be a refreshing pause from the life in Germany, even though I really like my familiy and friends here but maybe I can find myself and more things I`m passionate about or like. In addition to that I also really look forward to meeting my host family and I hope we will get along well and have as much fun as possible together.

Hobbies: Swimming, dancing, be in the nature, spending time with my family, meeting with friends Allergies: No allergies Special Diet: No special diet Self-Description: When you get ask to describe yourself it is always a hard question because you have to reflect yourself, what you do and how you act in different situations. For me it is really important to do this because so you know what you maybe have to chance. I am a person who have to try out many things because so I know what I like. How do you know what you are want to study or what person do you want to be. For example I only can say I don’t want to live in the USA if I did it before or I can say I do not like this food when I ate it before. It is the same with my hobbies, I do many things like athletics, ballet, dancing and vaulting. Vaulting ( it’s like do gymnastics on a horse, if you do not know ) I did eight years but then I want to do something different. Now I am swimming every Thursday in a club, I feel so free in the water so I think it is fantastic. I chanced my hair colour and my hair cut the the last years often, because at some point I feel I need something different ( now I have brown hair, maybe I am blond again when we meet). I also decorate my room new or organise my things different when I want something new. I love it when things are organised and I have an overview about everything. In my free time I love singing and dancing alone or with my friends it is really funny. Meeting my friends is a thing I prefer a lot so I hope I will make friends in my exchange. I also love the nature, when the sun is shining and I am going for a walk with my brother in the woods. I enjoy little things like when the sun is shining in my room in the morning. Some days I just want to lay in my bed and relax and watch TV and I thing I have a mix of everything in my life. I am a crazy and funny person but I am also calm and patient and I am really excited to meet my host family in the USA. Special Requests: No click here to learn more about hosting Laura |

Hobbies: My hobbies are baking/cooking, singing, and spending time with my friends. But I love so many things equally. I love music, I listen to it anytime I can and I love watching movies/tv shows, my fav are all marvel movies, stranger things, greys anatomy, euphoria and so much more! I also like sports, my fav since I’m a little child is definitely swimming, but I also like to play volleyball or basketball, I sometimes play it with my brother. But one of my fav hobbies ever is decorating, I love being creative and sometimes I wanna buy all the stuff at ikea and decorate a whole apartment by myself. And traveling ofc, I love getting to know new places and cultures and one day I wanna do a whole world tour :) But I’m a person who loves trying new stuff and I’m always open for new things! Allergies: Nuts in any form (hazel, cashews, peanuts, walnut) Special Diet: No special diet Self-Description: I would describe myself as an open, honest, polite, lovely and very sweet person, I like to explore new things and I’m kind to really everyone. I’m very ambitious with things I wanna achieve wether it‘s school, my future career or trying to cook a new dish. I’m to be honest a really messy person but I love to clean. I care a lot and always listen to people and try to be there for them, I’m very empathetic, my mom tells me this all the time, I can put myself in peoples shoes and understand what’s going on. I’m also very sleepy, I like to take naps after school. My hobbies that I do regularly at the moment are singing and dogschool, I do singing now for 3 years, not in a choir tho, it’s only me and my singing teacher, I always loved singing so much but I wasn’t really the best in it, so I started taking lessons and I’ve actually just performed in front of people a couple of weeks ago for the first time which I was really nervous about because I usually don’t feel comfortable yet singing in front of other people, I’m not a professional singer and I also don’t plan on being one, but I love singing with my heart and I will never stop with that. Dogschool I do now for already 7 years, I do it with my dog, her name is cosy and she’s now 9 years old and I kinda grew up with her, we have a really strong relationship, she’s like a little sister to me, and I love her so so much, I really do everything with her. But I also have hobbies like cooking/baking or meeting friends, baking/cooking was also something I always loved to do, especially baking, I love to try new recipes or decorating cakes afterwards, I don’t know what I love so much about it but it’s just something that I’m actually good in and just have so much fun doing it. And I also really really love to watch movies/tv shows, especially action or sci-fi movies, my fav movies are the marvel movies. The most I look forward about doing an exchange is firstly getting to know a new country, but also to go to a Highschool, getting to know a new family, new friends hopefully, new people in general, new food and new traditions, and seeing the difference between 2 countries.

Hobbies: My hobbys and interests are quite different. On one hand I love travelling and see the world but on the other hand I also love to chill with friends and watch movies into the middle of the night. It’s also good to know that I love animals, no matter if you like snakes, dogs, cows or lions… I would treat all of them as a pet! Allergies: No allergies Special Diet: No special diet Self-Description: My personality can simply be described with loyalty, joy of life and optimism. Honestly I have to say that I am not perfect. Sometimes I am chaotic, tired and lazy. Although I am optimistic I am built very close to the water which means that I am a bit emotional and sensitive. Going out with friends and staying home with my pets belongs to my hobbies. I really like baking and cooking and maybe even more than eating at a restaurant. For me it is not easy to eat somewhere else than home but after a few days this problem is solved. I have a very close relationship with animals which is probably the reason for me being vegan. I feel very connected with them and I am not just empathetic to people. I am also very empathetic to animals. As far as interpersonal relationships are concerned, I am very tolerant and trustful. I am looking foward to improve my english and to spend much time with you! For me it is such a great experience and I am counting every day until I finally arrived at the USA!
