I've just skyped with (part of) the family again. Seriously, they are so nice and I really think we'd fit together. The dad wasn't there but I got to talk with the current au pair for a second and the little boy came in and said Hello and I think I almost died of cuteness.
She (the mom) told me they are talking to me and another girl and they are having a really hard time deciding because they really like the both of us. They're going to think about it for a few days and let me know. So we're going to talk again Saturday. gah. My fingers are crossed, I really want to be placed with them.

I just hung up from talking to a potential family.
From Valencia, Spain. They were so nice, and so freaking adorable. They have 2 kids. A boy (3) and a girl (16 months). It was a short and sweet "lets just cut to the chase" type call, which I appreciate. I get so nervous before skyping with people. I usually end up fumbling my words and saying nonsense. Basically just going over everything we have emailed about already... and a few other things. We're going to Skype again Thursday :)

I also wish I was better at making this blog look nice.
I can't find anything I want to use for a banner and I'm horrible at making them. Hopefully soon I'll come up with something.
Starting to talk to more host families...
Exciting~~
I've been keeping my eye out for families needing someone at the end of summer. I've gotten a few responses for mid-late August.
Hopefully I'll find a family in France or Spain. That'd be exciting.
