The last summer I did a lot of things very funny.
One day I did jet skiing with Cristina, Vaneng and Jeremie it was very nice! I went two weeks in a summer camps with Laia, Paula, Vila, Roger and Cristina and there I made many friends what I never forget. I did water skiing and I rowing too. I went to many parties with my friends. And finally the summer I went to Mèxic.
I hope that next summer I pass so well as the past.

We did a lot of festivals, one or two for year. When I was six years I started conemporani dance. I danced contemporani in many places; in Castellò d’Empúries, in Girona, in Selrrà...
