“Dear Au Pair in America,<\/p>\n

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to spend a year abroad, get to know a different culture and have the time of my life! I just came back to my home country after I finished my year as an au pair in a suburb of Washington, DC and I can definitely say it was the best thing I could have ever done! I found amazing friends, a second home and got to get to know myself a little bit better. I got to travel the world, make new memories with people I share a lot with and got to take care of great kids. Being an au pair is not always easy; there are so many ups and downs and your mood can change from one moment to another. One day you’re homesick and you want to book a flight to go home and the other day you never want to leave the place you also learned to call home – but in the end it’s worth it. It is such a great program and I want to thank you for always having your counselors by our side, being supportive in everything and giving us the feeling to be part of something special! I will always keep those memories and experiences I gained in my heart and will always come back to the States!”<\/p>\n

Love, Lena (Germany)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
