My Au Pair experience in 2013.

Ophelia’s Diary.

 2013 year was a great and harvest year for me. I am so thankful that I can be an Au Pair. I love being an Au Pair and would like to share my Au Pair experience with you.

In January, 2013 I finished all the Au Pair application documents. The next step was matching with family. During this time, I did an internship job at Chinese Au Pair center and tutored American kids mandarin. This experience helped speed up my matching process. On March 3, I got an offer from the family I like. I accepted it happily.

On July 8, I arrived New York! This was the first flight in my life. A 20 hours long international flight. I had a great time with Au Pair Sis and a lot Au Pairs during New York Workshop.

After the workshop, my wonderful Au Pair life started in Philadelphia.

With my host child Theo, I never feel alone. Love is everywhere in my host family’s home. 

If you don’t experience by yourself, you can never imagine how amazing Au Pair’s life could be.

I had a great time at Peddler’s Village with my best friend Adriana’s host family.

 I went to Harvest America Music Concert and Atlantic city with Adriana.

I had classic Italian desserts cooking class as my first American birthday gift and my birthday celebration with Au Pairs friends.

I had awesome English class at International house.

Also, I went bowling and volunteering at the Philadelphia Marathon with many Au Pairs.

I just came back from a wonderful Houston Thanksgiving trip, now I am going to Alaska and Hawaii with my host.

If not the Au Pair program, how could all my dreams come true?
