Emily will be 16 upon arrival in the US. She lives in a small town in Germany with her parents and younger sister. She loves that everyone in her family can trust each other, talk about everything, and laugh together. She says of her prospective host family: "I hope when I am with you that we can also trust each other and laugh together." She's very active and has many interests. Some of her interests are spending time with friends, playing tennis, dancing (jazz, modern, and contemporary), cycling, swimming, surfing, and playing the piano. She is also a vegetarian. One dream of hers is to become a cheerleader when she's in the USA because she loves to dance and do gymnastics. She says: "I want to spend a year abroad because I want to improve my English, meet new people and gain experience for my life. I also want to know how life is in an American family and learn more about your culture. I’ve always been very interested in other cultures, which is because my parents travel a lot with me to different countries."
