My name is Martin, I am 11 years old and I live in Manizales, Colombia . I have 1 brother whose name is Tomas and we study in the Colegio Granadino. I am in the sixth grade. My mother’s name is Adriana. She works at the University of Caldas in the Visual Design Department. My father’s name is Felipe. He is teacher of computers in the Visual Design Department and he helped me to do the web page.

I love down hill, cross country, motoX and BMX bike riding. I practice down hill a lot and I have fallen down many times. My hobbies are listening to music. For example I like Blink 182 and the Gorillas. I also like to play computer games. I like sports games and action games.

I have many friends in the world because I travel very much. The first time that I traveled was in 1992. I went to the Unite States, France, Spain, Bulgaria, Italy, The Check Republic, Austria, Switzerland, Germany, Belgium and Holanda.

The second time that I traveled was to Spain for four years. While in Spain I traveled to Greece, Portugal and to Andorra (which is a very little country that is between France and Spain).

In Spain I have the best friends in all of the world. One is Gabriel who I write to on the internet. The other one is Carlos, who I lost touch with . Carles was my best friend with Adrian.

I went to many cities and many places with Adrian. Some of my other friends were Isaac, Jonathan, Guillem, Paloma, Mireya, Alba, Adelaida, Edu and Antonio.

Since my family has been back in Colombia I have made new friends like Juan Carlos, Juan Camilo, Jose Luis, Juan Felipe, Pablo, Francisco, Juan Diego, etc..
