Student Exchange Programs

I am an exchange student and i am 15 years old and have been living with one family who i relaly love for 6 months and i am leaving in 2 days and i want to write them a letter to say thank you
but my french still isn’t prefect but i dont want to make mistakes in what i write

so is there anyone who can help me translate this into french and what a 15 year old would speak like
not with fancy vocabulary and everything

Dear Patrick,Juliette, Marie and Sarah
As the time approaches for us to say goodbye I am filled with great sadness at leaving and I want to thank you sincerely for accepting me into your home and caring for me for the past six months. i really like your family and enjoyed being in it so much. Thank you for giving me such an unforgettable and amazing experience.
I really enjoyed being with you Marie and going to the park with you and going on walks and just talking about everything. I liked spending time with you a lot. Thank you for being like my mum Juliette and for washing my clothes and preparing the meals and I really like the bread that you make Juliette. Sarah you are really considerate for your age and much more mature than a normal 11 year old. You’re also really cute, I really enjoyed spending time with you. Patrick thank you for helping organise everything I needed for school, books etc, It made it a lot easier for me thank you also for the time you took me in your plane and also for always collecting my packages from the post office. I have come to love France and the people I have met ans spent time with so much that I honestly don’t know how I am going to say goodbye to you all. Everyone has been so kind to me. Thank you also for giving me so much freedom, it really allowed me to make really good relationships with so many people.
Thank you for taking me to Ardeche. I have never experienced such a cold winter! Thank you also for the opportunity to go to Austria. I really really enjoyed that.
I have many memories that will stay with me for my lifetime.
Thank you for helping me learn French and about the French culture.
Thank you also for introducing me to new foods. I actually really like fish now.
Thank you all sincerely and I will see you when I come back to France.
You can all come to Australia and stay at my house whenever you want
I will miss you all.

Good luck next year Patrick with your new school
and sarah I hope you find heaps of new nice friends at your new school
and Marie good luck next year in Terminale and have fun in your apartment and living by yourself

It has really been such an unforgettable experience. I can’t thank you enough. ?Love Danni
