    You Know You're An Au Pair In America When....

    20 things only an Au Pair in America will truly understand!

    1. You spend most of your money and the majority of your free time in Starbucks!

    2. You can casually 'pop' into New York City on your day off!

    3. You re-live your favorite TV show and pretend you're in Baywatch every time you visit a beach!

    "Some people stand in the darkness, afraid to step into the light..."

    4. You're COMPLETELY terrified of heights but you still visit the Chicago Skydeck and pose on a scarily thin piece of glass for a photo!

    5. Goldfish are no longer actually fish but are life-saving snacks for the kids!

    6. You can whip up a mean mac & cheese in a matter of minutes...

    7. Your 3 year old host kid starts talking with your accent...OOPS!

    8. You totally nail the art of taking the PERFECT candid photo!

    9. You used to HATE peanut butter but now you simply can't get enough of PB & J sandwiches #yum!

    10. You've watched too much Disney Channel and now you can't eat a hot dog without singing "hot dog, hot dog, hot diggidy dog!"

    11. You visit as many US states & landmarks as possible...

    ...and collect either a keyring, t-shirt, license plate, shot glass or hoody from each one!

    12. You've never celebrated Halloween before but now it's your FAVORITE holiday and your pumpkin carving skills are just out of this world!

    13. You absolutely DREAD the words 'Snow Day'!

    14. You're broke by the end of the week but shopping always seems to make things better!

    15. Adding maple syrup to EVERY meal seems entirely normal!

    16. You know ALL the words to the Frozen movie...

    ... and listen to the soundtrack in the car, even when the kids aren't there!

    17. You make new friends from all around the world, your holiday destinations for the next 20 years are sorted and you'll never have to stay in a hotel again!

    18. You absolutely LOVE your host kids and you think they're hilarious...

    ...but they've made you realise that you're DEFINITELY 100% not ready to have your own children!

    19. Saying goodbye to the friends you've made is the hardest thing EVER!

    20. You don't want this year to end...and you've had the TIME OF YOUR LIFE!
