Subject: Hi from Argentina
Hi Daniel,
My name's Alessandra. It's an italian name because my grandmother was from
Italy, but I'm Argentinian. I live in Mendoza, a big city in the west of the country. I
live with my parents and my two brothers. I have 19 years old , and I'm in college.
I'm studing computer science. I'm in my first year, and I really like it.
I'm going to tell you about myself As you can see from the foto, I have long,
light brown hair and greens eyes. I wear glasses, but I want to get contact lenses
soon.
I think I' m a positive person. I'm pretty outgoing and frendly. My mother says
I'm very talkative - I think she mean that I talk too much!
In my free time I love reading and going to the movies. But I dont have much
free time becuase I have classes every day, and a lot of work to do even on
weekends. I also go to English classes on friday afternoon.
Please write soon and tell me about you and your life.
Best wishes,
Alessandra
