April 2019

I still remember arriving at my host family’s place like it was yesterday. All of the other au pairs on my train were so nervous and we tried to calm each other down. Some of them had talked to their families a lot, some just emailed a few times back and forth. I am their fifth au pair, so while all the other families were waiting with posters and balloons at the train station, it was just my host dad who came to pick me up.

When I came to Orientation in New York, they asked us how many kids each of us would have. Most girls stood up with 2-3 kids. If I remember right, I was the only one with five kids.
