My name is Valentin, I am 15 years old and I live in a house in a small village near a big city with my parents and my younger brother. I am in the 10th grade at a science, technology and arts grammar school and my favourite subjects are math, chemistry and music. In my free time, I enjoy playing tennis and golf in a team, the electric guitar in the school band and video games with my friends. Together with my family, we often visit my relatives at the weekend, on public holidays or for family celebrations. My qualities that will be beneficial for a year abroad include being goal-oriented, eager to learn and helpful but on the other hand, I am a rather reserved person and hope to develop and improve my communication skills during this year. Additionally, I would like to experience life in an American family and high school. #174862
