Greetings!
Hi Sylvie!
I’m your cyber-friend, Paul. I’m 12 and I’m in 6th grade. I come from a big city but now I live
in a small village in the country, with my family. There are five people in my family: my parents,
my brother and my little sister. My uncle Tim and his family live on a farm near the village.
My parents work on the Redhill campsite near the village. My dad is the tour guide and
my mother is the receptionist. They like their work very much. It’s a special campsite for
students from state schools in the country. They come to the campsite to go on field trips
and adventure tours. They can put up their tents or rent small cabins. There are horses and
bicycles to ride. They love the place!
Tell me about your life!
