Our family is not large. I have a father, a mother and a younger sister. We all live together in a new flat in one of the districts of Novosibirsk.
My father is 45 years old. He is a tall and well-built man. He works as a doctor at a hospital. He likes his work and spends most of his time there. As for my mother she is a teacher of music and plays the piano well. My mother always has a lot of work to do about the house. She is a busy woman and we all help her.
My sister's name is Kate. She is a very good-looking girl. Kate is three years younger than me. She is a pupil of the 9-th form. She does well at school.
My name is Tanya. I was born in Novosibirsk in 1996. I am 17. My birthday is on the 5-th of May. I am Russian. I have left school and entered the Novosibirsk State Water Transport Academy. Now I am a first-year student of the Port Operation and Management Department. I am fond of reading historical books and I'm also fond of sport.
Our family is friendly. We like to spend time together. In the evenings we watch TV, read books and newspapers, listen to music or talk about the events of the day. All of us like to spend our week-ends out of town.
We often come to see our grandparents who are old-age pensioners. They prefer to live in the country.
I also have many other relatives : uncles, aunts and cousins
We are happy when we are together.
