Hi, I am Joe. I'm 13 years old. I'm a student in Gabrielino HighSchool. I'm from Sao Paulo, Brazil but now I live in Los Angeles, USA.

I have two brothers and a sister. My brothers are Carlos and Mattiasand my sister is Giovanna. My parents are Luisa and John. We live in a bighouse. My favorite room in the house is my bedroom. There is a big bookcase, ablue bed and a small sofa in it. Carlos and Mattias are in the same room. Theyhave yellow beds, a desk and 'two chairs, but they don't have a bookcase. My sister'sroom is nice and tidy. But my room looksmessy. There are books andclothes everywhere on my bed, on the sofa and on the floor.

In my free time, I like reading and playing sports. My favoritebooks are about music. I always play soccer with my friends after class. OnSaturdays, I have a music class. On Sundays, I like to play basketball with myfather and my brothers.

I like traveling very much. I go on trips with my family every holiday.We visited many cities, like London, Tokyo, New York and Paris. We will go to Beijingnext year.
