How I became fascinated with America!

Today I want to tell you about my experience here in America. To talk about how everything started and why I traveled so far away from home to begin a big incredible journey. Take a relaxing seat and enjoy.
It all started as I decided to go to England and work in a hotel to increase my English language skills. My colleague in the travel office told me that she has friends in America, Colorado who are looking for an aupair. I thought that would be an amazing thing to do. America!WOW! I just knew the USA from the movies.
A friend of mine, who is amazing in english, helped me to get everything straighten up and soon enough I was sitting in the airplane on the way to New York. In New York I received my aupair training. Finally I met my family, who liked me right away and I felt at home by an instant. As I lived there for a while I became really good friend with a girl from France and we spend a lot of time with each other and our host childs. I had an incredible year of traveling, family and friends. Therefore I stayed for a second year where I met a really nice guy. We spend a lot of time with each other. I also enjoyed the time with his family, especially his sister and her husband from Peru, who introduced me to everyone. Too soon arrived the time and I had to leave. I decided to absolve my "Fachhochschulreife" (advanced technical college entrance qualification) in Germany. My twin sister was the key to get into that school. During the year in Germany I was still in touch with my friend from France and the friends I made in America, especially that nice boy.  My friend and I developed an idea to go back and study in America. That was an incredible unrealistic dream at that point. But we held on on that idea and I started to work many hours to get the money together to study in America. I didn't have enough, but I didn't let go of my dream. Family members heard about my crazy idea and unexpectedly decided to help me. My uncle, my aunt, my grandma and my sister pitched in some money to make my dream come true. My dream turned into reality. Unbelievable, I am sitting here right now in front of my computer and writing from Colorado, USA. I am living with my now boyfriend together at his sister's house, since he is still going to college as well. My next big step is to finish my college degree here in Colorado. I love the college here and I love the people. Every day is a special gift for me. All my supportive friends and family members back home in Germany are part of this dream as well. Without any of my family or friends in Germany I couldn't have done it.
