Jana-Mari (21), Sudafricana & Statunitense, Studente attualmente in Stati Uniti d'America cerca lavoro come Au Pair in Belgio, Germania, Paesi Bassi, Svizzera & Regno Unito per 2-3 mesi

Dear Host Family,

My name is Jana and I am 20 years old. I am originally from South Africa but moved to Houston, Texas, when I was 16 years old, so Afrikaans is my first language but I am fluent in English. I am currently studying Nursing at a University, and will be graduating in May 2025. Once I am done with school I am hoping to do travel Nursing or missions with Nursing. I have also thought about pediatric oncology. The world will be wide open once I get my degree, so I am very open minded.

I would love to spend my summer abroad, working with kids. I love traveling and learning about different cultures, and being a summer AuPair will allow me to live out what I love. I spent last summer in Slovenia leading summer camps, and am hoping to have a smaller, more intentional community this summer. I have worked with kids since I was 16, babysitting and working in kids ministry at my church. I have also worked at summer camps the past 3 summers, with ages 2-7, as well as high school. As you can tell, I just love surrounding myself with kids and new experiences!

In my free time I love to spend time with my friends, running, as well as reading books in the sun. I have a part time job in college, so that also takes up a lot of my time with Nursing school. I am an extravert and love people, and my spontaneous side makes me see a lot of the world that people don't necessarily always get to. I currently live with 5 other girls, so I am not a very dependent person. I can stand on my own feet and take care of myself, and will make you laugh along the way.

I am so excited that you are reading my letter and would love to hear back from you soon! Thank you for considering me,
Jana
