Letter to the family

Hello, my name is Portia and I am from Australia. I am 23 years old and have recently finished studying my bachelor's degree at CentraleSupelec in France, whilst on an exchange. Since, I have been travelling Europe for the last 3 months which has been amazing, however has left me homesick. I would love to situate myself with a family in Barcelona, where I will be able to take Spanish courses throughout the week and immerse myself in the culture. I have previously nannied alongside my full-time studies back home (15 hours/week) for a lovely Canadian family with a 1.5- and 3.5-year-old. I have also previously volunteered and taught preschoolers English in the Philippines for a month in 2021, hence have experience teaching English to non-speakers. I am also currently tutoring for Engineering and ICT management courses (online) for my home university, which will be concluding in October and would like to invest my time into languages/culture and history when it is complete. I am very enthusiastic with young children and love to cook and read in my spare time.

Experience

I would like to experience a new culture, where family is prominent in everyday life. I would love to learn Spanish and au pair in Barcelona, as it is a commonly spoken language, and I would like to have the opportunity to work as an Engineer here in a few years. I have stayed in Barcelona for 2 weeks June/July, 2024 and fell in love with the city, as it reminds me of my hometown.
