“I love pumpkin pie and I hope we will have some.” – au pair from Austria
“We don’t have Thanksgiving in Germany, so I’m looking forward for the dinner—especially for the big turkey (even if I’ll not eat it) because I think, this is what everybody thinks about Thanksgiving in the USA.” – au pair from Germany

Myth: You need a large house to host an au pair
