10 min after you are back home, and meeting your friends. When your'e hostkids are fighting each other, about something stupid, for the 1000 time. When you having a great influence. When you going out with your Hostkids. When you have to play, with your'e hostkids, the same game for to many times already. When your'e hostkid want to set up the rules. When you watched netflix until 1am, and you have to bring your'e hostkids to school in the morning.

Vacation

Dallas - San Antonio - Houston - New Orleans                                               Es ist so viel passiert in meinem Urlaub!! Das beste war das ich mit  Beyoncé im gleichen Raum war und das schlechte das ich mir fast mein Fuß gebrochen habe!  Ich war in Dallas - San Antonio - Bandera - Houston & New Orleans für 9 Tage. Ich liebe jede einzelne Stadt! In Dallas war ich erst an der Elm Street wo das Attentat auf J.F. Kennedy verübt wurde und danach war ich shoppen. In San Antonio waren wir in einem richtig tollen Steak Restaurant wo der Kellner mir einfach die Servierte auf den Schoß gelegt hat so fein war das!! Alamo & Riverwalk sind sehr schön! Und wir waren auf einem Rodeo am meisten hat mir das Bronc riding gefallen. Dann waren wir in Bandera auf der Rancho Cortez Ranch wo ich sehr gut das Cowgirl gespiel...

How I stay fit as a AuPair

Bild
If you are love it to eat fast food, meat and generally a lot of food, like me, it could be a little bit hard to stay fit.  In my first two month I just ate so much great things! Burritos from Chipotle, big bacon burger, the best fries I ever ate, fried Shrimps, Pancakes with maple syrup, frozen yoghurt, steak AND AND AND!!! So now I can't see burgers anymore, and I made some friends at Chipotle! Yesterday I was with a other AuPair at a thai restaurant and I ate duck with white rice and shrimp crackers!   What I do is go from Monday to Friday to the Gym for 1 1/2 to 2 hours, drinking a lot of water and sleeping at least 7 hours.  Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. I try to eat only on this three times. Because I have to make between this meals some snacks for my hostkids, it's really hard not to eat anything either at this time.  Otherwise, I simply eat a orange or a banana, something like that. That is one thing why I'm happy to go home after ...

My favorite shops & stores in the United States

Bild
One of the benefits to be here in the USA are the shops and Stores, you usually don't have in you're home country, in my case Germany.  I know that we have in Berlin Topshop, Brandy melville, forever 21 but we don't have for example Victoria Secret anywhere.  Since I'm here in Vermont I love to do online shopping. The last thing I ordered is "Gisou" it's a hair product from the Netherlands  https://www.instagram.com/gisou_official/ ,   and I love it!!! It's not from here but anyway I want it.  Next Urban Outfitters and Pacsun are really good clothing shops! What I really like from Urban Outfitters are the Bralettes  http://www.urbanoutfitters.com/de/catalog/productdetail.jsp?id=5741527850999&category=WOMENS-LINGERIE-EU  !  Also great are Sephora and Mayc's for makeup and generally products for the skin. Try the "Elf bubble mask" or the liquid Concelear from Smashbox!  http://www.smashbox.de/pr...

If you want to to be an Aupair and ask the currently AuPair the first questions...

Bild
So I'm now on the point where my host family are searching for the new AuPair!  My HostMum is always looking first at the photos und than at the letter the AuPair wrote. After this she is emailing them about a Skype date. When the Skype date went well (ask about the kids) she give the AuPair my email address so that she could asked me some questions. Sooooo what you should do is..... do not asked about: the area their live, their accommodation, the car situation, their house etc. DOOOO asked about: the kids!!! the HostParents!! and the family in whole!! Everything else you should asked in the second Email when you have all your answers about their live!  Because in our case, I told my host parents everything what the AuPair asked me in the e-mail. So if you only asked about.. where you can go to do some partying or if you have your own car or what ever you thing is the most important thing it's not! It is better for YOU if you can get along with the HostFamily instead ...

Burlington VT

Today I'm 200 days in the USA! And I want to give you all an insight where I'm living for my whole year! So if you already read my last few post than you know that I matched with the first family who got in to my profile. My Hostfamily is living in Burlington, Vermont that is a state over New York City (one hour flight). So I have all the seasons here. Summer - Fall - Winterrrrrr - Spring and Summer again . Vermont is a Part of New England that means that here is the Idian Summer wich means the most beautiful view ever! Burlington has the University of Vermont and lots of different colleges so here are a lot of students some fraternity's and sorority's! Than we have the Curchstreet, who is always really fancy and pretty. From expensive boutique's to Urban Outfitters they got all. I love it to got to games like baseball and ice hokey. The weird thing in the USA is if you have a date you didn't go to the movie or something like that, no.. you went to t...

Sick, Christmas time & New Year's Eve

Ich glaube das schlimmste was dir hier in den USA als AuPair passieren kann, ist wenn du krank wirst, aber so richtig. Ich war fast eine ganze Woche krank, und bin mind. 3 mal gestorben! Oli war zuerst krank und ich hatte alles von ihm bekommen nur mit 2 Tagen Verspätung... Übergeben, Schwindel, Halsschmerzen bis zum geht nicht mehr usw. Also mein Tipp ist alles Medikamente die ihr zuhause immer benutzt Ibuprofen, Nasenspräh etc. auf jeden Fall mitzunehmen!! Weihnachtsgeschenke für meine Hostfamily Hostmom: Dior Parfum  Hostdad: Golf Handschuh von Pebble Beach  Piper: My little Pony Train  Oliver: Lego Duplo Train  Christmas Time!  Am zweiten Advent waren wir im Country Golf Club in Burlington und haben zusammen Brunch gegessen. Der "Weihnachtsmann" kam mit dem Hubschrauber angeflogen, er hat den Kindern eine Geschichte vorgelesen und jedes Kind auf den Schoß genommen oder wie man das nennt.  Am 24.D...
