PROFILE: ENRICO
My name is Enrico and I’m 15 years old. I come from Ancona originally, but there is nowhere that I really call home. We move around a lot – in Italy and in other countries – because of my dad’s job. He works for the military. We generally don’t live in the same place for very long – only two or three years. At the moment, we are living in Vicenza. My sister, who is 17, goes to the same school as me. My brother teaches at the local school this year, but he wants to study medicine next year.
PROFILE: ANA
My name’s Ana. I’m a student at a liceo. At the moment, we are studying for exams. I generally enjoy school. In my free time, I read a lot of books ( I am reading a great book called No Way Out at the moment ) and I learn to play the guitar. I usually do quite a lot of sport, although I am not doing much at the moment because of my exams. I just go swimming a couple of times a week until the exams are over. I look forward to next month when I can do more.

I work as a fitness instructor in a gym. I go to the gym almost every day – either to teach or to exercises. I like learning new types of exercises. At the moment I’m learning yoga and I’m really enjoying it. I work out at the gym probably three times a week, and I often go swimming afterwards. This month I’m training a bit harder because I want to do a half-marathon in a couple of months. I’m really happy because I’m getting better.
I do exercise all the time, obviously! I need to relax and rest, too. My best friend and I go to the cinema once or twice a week, and we often cook nice meals together.
