Hello! My name's Carola Gandelli. I'm 15 yars old and I'm from Aosta Valley in the north of Italy. The exact place where I live is Morgex, a mountain village. I live there with my family. Physically, I'm not very tall, I'm medium-height and medium-build. I've got short brown hair. I prefer wearing my hair in pony-tails because I think it's better and more comfortable than untied. I'm sometimes shy and I'm not very talkative but I'm a good listener and I enjoy helping people with their problems. I'm very studious but I don't study just to get good marks but because I want to learn new things and become a very important person such as an ambassadress. My friends say I'm funny. My passion is horse-riding. I love doing long excursions and I'm very happy when a "friendship" springs up between the horse and me because I know I can trust him. Unluckily I haven't got a horse but I hope one day I will have a beautiful black Frisian. In my free time I love reading. I enjoy Agatha Christie's novels and I think the best novel of all is "Murder on the Orient Express", but I also like other kind of books such as vampire and angel stories. I often listen to music, especially pop and commercial, but I hate listening to the radio because I think they talk too much. I watch TV in the evenings when I have dinner with my family: we love quiz shows. On Saturday afternoons, I go out with my friend Eloise: we meet each other only at the weekend because she studies in Turin. We speak about our lives. When I grow up I want to travel, discover every part of the world and learn Russian and Slavic languages. One day I will be a famous interpreter in the Strasbourg Parliament.
