My best friend's name is Amelie.
She lives in Amstetten and she attends the “Klosterschule”. We have known each other since she was born, because she is my cousin, so my mom is the sister of Amelie's mom.

What I like best in her is that she is very funny and we have the same interests. Our hobbies are drawing, taking photos and videos and we like pets.
She never lies to me and she always makes me feel good. We sometimes wear dungarees and the same T-shirt. We both like the movie “Der Schuh des Manitu” and Michael Bully Herbig.

It's fun to be with her because  we do very crazy things together like dancing and so on.

My best friend’s name is Fabian. He lives in Nöchling. He is 12 years old and he has curly ginger hair. His birthday is on the 13th  of April. He has greenish blue eyes and freckles.

We've known each other since 2013. Sometimes we argue but we always make up again soon.
We often play soccer and video games together. Fabian´s hobbies are football, playing computer games and riding his Quad. We often visit each other.

He has a good sense of humor  and always makes me laugh. He has an older brother named Pascal.
He also has a younger sister named Alina. She was born on the 17th of February 2015. She is now one week old.

Fabian lives on a farm. He has a dog named Mono and three cats. We enjoy going to the cinema to watch action movies. I hope we stay best friends forever.

Dear Antonia,                                                

I want to tell you something about my best friend Juliane and the rules that she has to follow. My best friend lives in Dorfstetten which is in Austria, and she is 12 years old . Her hair is blond and straight. She sometimes ties it up in a bun or a ponytail. Juliane has green eyes and her eyes always sparkle. Juliane is tall , in fact she is the tallest person in our class.

I can still  remember when we first met. We first met at the kindergarten in Dorfstetten, because I am also 12 years old.  We played together and now I am very glad that we found us.
Juliane is a very helpful person. At school she is also very helpful and a very good student. Juliane always wears trendy clothes, but in school she has to wear a school uniform. If she doesn’t wear it she gets a penalty.

What I like best about her is her honesty and her wonderful smile. Juliane always talks with me, not about me and she accepts me as I am. She never gives away my secrets and never lets me down.

Her hobbies are reading books and playing with her mobile phone or her guitar. If she plays with her phone all day long her parents may take the mobile phone and two days later they give it to her again. She also likes watching TV, but when she watches TV until 10 o’clock during the week she gets grounded. Juliane often goes out with friends at the weekend, but she has to come home before 11 o’clock p.m. If she comes home later than 11 o‘clock she is not allowed to stay up late for the next weeks. I think her parents are strict.

What about your parents? Are they strict? What about your best friend ?
I hope you will write an email back soon.

Love, Julia and Verena

Dear Emily!

Thanks for the last letter!

My best friend is Romana and she is fourteen years old. She lives in Waldhausen with her family. We have known each other for nine years. At first I met Romana at kindergarten. I see her every day because we attend the same school. Her nickname is Romy.

Romy has brown eyes and dark brown, straight hair. She is very thin and tall but she is not the tallest girl in our class. Romana always wears trendy clothes. Her favourite jeans are black and her favourite T-Shirt is white and green. I like her style and I think she’s very very pretty.

Yesterday we talked about some rules at home. She must follow some rules. Romy always has to make her bed and tidy her room. She is not allowed to jump down the stairs because the stairs are hard in her house. One of the important rules is that she must always be polite and she is not allowed to shout around in the house. She is not allowed to turn the volume up and she must take her shoes off when she enters the house. The most important rule is that she’s not allowed to have a tattoo or a nose stud before she is 18 years old.

Romy is always honest with me and she never gives away my secrets. It’s very much fun to be with her. What I like best in her is that she never lets me down and she accepts me as I am. This is my best friend.

Yours Antonia :)

Hi Simone!

I want to tell you something about my best friend Tamara and the rules at her home. She lives in Canada, in a town of about 20.000 people and she is 15 years old. Tamara has wonderful brown eyes, which always sparkle. She is tall and thin and very beautiful. Her hair, which is black and straight, is long and she sometimes ties it up in a bun.

At her home she has to make her bed and help her mum with the cooking. If she doesn´t play with her brother, she doesn't get her mobile phone. Tamara is allowed to watch TV until 11 o´clock p.m.
At the weekend she is allowed to  go to the disco and to come home after half past 11 p.m.

I can still remember when we first met. We have known each other for eleven years.
Tamara attends the 1st class in her school. Now we meet every year for three months is Austria and we have lots of fun, because she is very crazy.

Last year, when Tamara was in Austria, we went shopping, swimming and sightseeing in Vienna, the capital of Austria. We had lots of fun.

What I like best about Tamara is that she is always honest with me and she never gives my secrets away. She is always friendly and she makes me feel good.
We are best friends but once we had an argument for two months but we haven't fallen out, yet.

I hope to see you soon.

Yours, Lisa ♥
