HI, EVERYONE!

&LINEBREAK&CODE&;WE ARE THE SOTILLO FAMILY AND WE HOPE THAT WITH THIS LETTER YOU CAN KNOW ABOUT US A LITTLE MORE.

&LINEBREAK&CODE&;WE HAVE THREE CHILDREN: JUAN (WHO IS ALREADY IN UNIVERSITY), XIMENA (WHO IS 17 AND IS ABOUT ONE YEAR OF FINISHING HIGH SCHOOL) AND JULIA (WHO IS 16 AND IS GOING TO START BACHILLERATO NEXT YEAR). WE LIVE IN A BEAUTIFUL COUNTRYSIDE PART OF SPAIN, SO WE LOVE NATURE, GOOD FOOD AND BEING OUTDOORS.

&LINEBREAK&CODE&;WE ARE SEARCHING FOR AN EXCHANGE FOR OUR DAUGHTER XIMENA. SHE WANTS TO SPEND BETWEEN TWO WEEKS AND A MONTH IN A FAMILY, SO SHE CAN PRACTISE HER ENGLISH, AND ABOVE ALL, GET TO KNOW OTHER PEOPLE AND OTHER CULTURES. WE WANT FOR HER A NICE FAMILY, WHO TREAT HER LIKE A MEMBER OF IT. WE'RE ALSO SEARCHING FOR AN ACTIVE FAMILY, WHO LIKES DOING A LOT OF THINGS AND LIVING NEW ADVENTURES. XIMENA LOVES CHILDREN (IN FACT, SHE WORKED AS A TEACHER LAST SUMMER), SO SHE WOULDN'T MIND TO BE IN A FAMILY WITH SMALL CHILDREN. BECAUSE SHE'S ALWAYS WILLING TO HELP, SHE WILL BE PLEASED TO HELP IN WHATEVER THE FAMILY NEEDS (CHORES, TAKING OF CHILDREN...). XIMENA IS A REALLY RESPONSIBLE PERSON, ALSO, SO SHE'S GOING TO ADAPT TO WHATEVER YOUR SITUATION IS AND WHATEVER THE RULES OF YOUR HOUSE ARE. AS XIMENA IS AN EASY-GOING PERSON, SHE WON'T NEED MUCH TO HAVE FUN WITH AND SHE'LL BE PLEASED WITH ANYTHING. FOR THIS REASON, WE HOPE THAT, DURING HER STAY, OUR DAUGHTER WILL BECOME A PART OF YOUR WONDERFUL FAMILY.
