Hi, I’m Anna, and I want to tell you about my friends. I have a small group of close friends, and we know each other from work. My best friend is Lisa. She is very warm and patient, and she always listens when I have a problem. She works in an office, but she loves art, so on weekends she often goes to museums or small exhibitions. When we meet, we usually walk around the city and talk about everything. I also have a friend called Nina. She is the opposite of Lisa—she is very energetic and funny. Nina loves sports and outdoor activities. Sometimes she invites me to join her, like going for a bike ride or doing yoga in the park. I don’t always have the energy, but when I go, I feel better. I like my friends because they are different, but they support me. With them, I can relax, laugh, and feel like myself.
Hello, I’m David. I have a few good friends, and I spend time with them when I’m not working. My closest friend is Mike. We met at university, and we still stay in touch. Mike is very practical and organized. If I need advice, he gives me clear ideas, and he doesn’t panic. He works as an engineer, so he likes solving problems. I also have a friend named Omar. He is very social and talks to everyone. When we go out with Omar, it’s never boring. He knows new places in the city, like cafés and small restaurants, and he always wants to try something different. Sometimes he speaks too much, but he has a good heart. My friends help me keep a balance in life. Even if I’m busy, I try to see them at least once a week, because they make my life better.
Hi, I’m Maria, and my friends are very important to me. I have friends from different parts of my life—school, work, and my neighborhood. My best friend is Julia. She is kind, honest, and a little shy at first, but when you know her, she is very funny. We often meet after work, drink tea, and talk about our plans. Julia is great at giving support, especially when I feel stressed. I also have a friend called Sofia. She is very creative and loves making things. She paints, takes photos, and sometimes makes small gifts for her friends. When I feel bored, Sofia always has an idea, like going to a craft market or trying a new hobby. I trust my friends, and I feel lucky because they accept me. When we are together, I feel calm and happy.
