Picture by Anne Geddes

Hello Gerardo,

I’m going to tell you about my flat, my neighbourhood and my food habits. I live in a small flat in front of a big park. In this park there is a skate-park, a park with swings, slides, a football pitch, a volleyball pitch, a petanque pitch and an ice-cream shop. Sometimes there are circus like « Knie », « Nock » Circus and an attractions park, called « Luna Park ». Every weekend and every Wednesday, there is a huge flea market. The big park it’s « Plainpalais ». It’s very nice ! There are trees and three small fountains too.Next to Planpalais park, there is an other park, but it’s small. In this small park, people like to sit down on the benches and they like to go for a walk too. There is a big fountain with statues. There are many pigeons because people take bread for them. In front of this park there is a taxis station, a bus stop and a tramways stop. Nearly there is a Catholic church.

On my street there are several bars and restaurants.One of this bars is called « Friends », as an English series. There is a Chinese restaurant, a video club, a small cinema, a pharmacy, a sweets shop, a supermarket, a bakery and a small nightclub, with strippers.

In my neighbourhood there is all you need ! There is a swimming pool, a skating rink, a school of music,babies school, high school, parks, supermarkets,flowers shops, a post office, a firefighter building,a police office…

Now I’m going to speak about my building and my flat. I don’t like the colour of my building because it’s dark. It’s an old building and it’s grey. There are eight floors. I live on the 6th floor. I live with my mother and my brother. The building is made out of concrete.

My appartment is good for my little family and I, but soon we are maybe going to move.

My room is medium size and it’s divided in two because it’s the room of my brother too. In my room there are many things. Next to my bed there is my night stand, a big mirror, my desk and my bookcase. In my room there is my black piano and my hi-fi system with a lot of cd’s. On my piano there is a phone and a collection of porcelain dolls. On my bed there are many bits of fluff, for example a stuffed rabbit. On my night stand there is my alarm clock, my lamp, there are wilted roses because it’s a memory of my birthday and of Valentin’s day. There are my perfumes and my make-up too. My jewels are in drawers underneath my bed because my bed has four drawers, where I can tidy up many things. On my desk there is my computer, my printer, my web camera,many pencils, many photos, a lamp and a calendar. On my desk drawers there are many school books and many dictionaries. On my walls there are paintings. I love« Anne Geddes », she’s a baby photograph and her paintings are so beautiful ! In my room there is my cupboard too.
