Social stuff!!!!!
It all started 6 years ago when I became a fan of Avril Lavigne. I was twelve at that time and I began to hear that she came from Canada. I didn’t know what Canada was at that time and started exploring. Almost instantly I fell in love with the country. It was beautiful and I really like the Canadian attitude. It seems to me as a very warm and traditional country as on the other hand progressive too. Something I really like.
At this time in my life my biggest dream is to emigrate to Canada one day, but when I heard that my study offered me a chance to do my third year internship abroad I knew that this was a great way of experience Canada for the first time.
I’m studying social work, I’m in my first year now and I really enjoy it. I’m also started a part-time internship on a school with children who have autism. I’m working in a class with 11 and 12 year old boys. Which I really like. As you can see I’m already building up my first bits of experience.
What I would really like is an internship that involves children. I’ve always been good with children. I’m searching for an internship for 2009- 2010 with a duration of 10 months. If you feel like you can offer me the opportunity or you know where I could build up good connections please contact me. Also contact me please if you have any related questions.
I’m not only searching for a job, I would also love it to be part of a family for that 10 months. In other words I’m searching for a guest family. I’m happy with a family of any composition. But I prefer a job and guest family in a (really) small(er) town. I’m not such a city-girl If you’re interested in letting me into your home to experience the Canadian way of living or if you have questions please contact me .

I appreciate everything from everybody. And I’ll react surely.
Lots of love,
Lisa
