Dear Sandra,
Hi! This is my first e-mail to you. I hope we can be friends!
I’m 15 years old and come from a city in Mexico called Puebla. It’s a very interesting place with lots to do. I hope you come and visit it one day. I live with my parents, my two brothers, and my sister.

I speak Spanish, of course, and I’m learning English and Italian. Is your English good? Mine isn’t very good. I like school and I have a lot of friends. I really like sports, especially gymnastics, swimming, and karate. My sister likes yoga.

We all like animals in my family. We have three cats and a dog at home and my sister has a horse.

I often wear jeans and T-shirts. My favorite colors are purple and blue, but I don’t like yellow. I go to the movies almost every week. I like music too, of course. Hip-hop is my favorite but I like techno and punk too.

I also spend a lot of time on Twitter with my friends. We are always sending messages to each other.
What do you like and how do you spend your time? Write soon!

Bye!
Pablo
