Hi Rachel,
My name is Sara Silva, I'm 16 years old and I'm Portuguese. I have a baby sister called Madalena and two cousins that are like siblings to me. I also have a dog called Bee. I live with my mom and my stepfather in a small city in Algarve called Lagos. I love to go to the beach and I'm obsessed with dogs! I'm also very interested in space, especially on the Moon. Dancing is one of my passions so I've been doing ballet since I was 5 years old.
I attend Gil Eanes school here in Lagos in 11th grade. Here in Portugal in high school we have to choose an area and I chose science and technology, which means my classes are mainly focused on maths, biology, geology, physics, and chemistry. But I also have English, Portuguese, philosophy, and PE.
My friends are one of the most important things in my life. They're my support system! I'm attaching a photo that was taken last summer on the beach, as you can see in the background. I'm the wavy-haired girl standing at the front. In my right hand is Maria, my oldest and best friend. She loves wearing black clothes as you can see in the photo and is obsessed with Japanese culture. In Maria's right hand is Clara, the girl with purple hair. She's very funny and loves rock music. In my left hand is Paula, the girl with the white top and cargo pants. She loves cinema and music in general. At the back, the tall girl with short curly hair is Sofia, who is a very shy and sweet girl. Lastly, at the back as well but in Sofia's left hand is João, a very smart, sweet, and sensible boy.
Can you please send me a photo of you and your friends when you email me back? I would love to know about each one of them!
Bye for now!
Sara Filipe Silva
