Family Number 3
I now reside with the Deptris family, in the quaint barrio of Lomas de San Martin on the north side of town. I have three siblings. Vale the youngest is 20; studies film and photography at the university. Her distinct haircut with a dreadlock in the back reflects her unique eccentric style. Here cleft note tattoo on her neck give away her passion for music; she sings and plays the guitar beautifully. She is currently teaching me the acoustic guitar. Marco is the only boy and 22, he is a little shy but I know that he likes to swim and that he loves pasta. He works with my father and mother who are architects and have their own business during the week and I don’t see a whole lot of him. He has started taking business classes at the university and would really like to do more management type of work. Lau has followed in her father’s footsteps and is now studying architecture as well; she also enjoys drawing and various crafts. She is currently making lamp shades out of yarn. My father is a dedicated Rotary member and just finished his term as president. He is also an artist and his work is hung throughout the house. My mother is a retired history teacher and now helps my father with his own business. Last but now least is Bernie our dog; a little mutt medium size who resides in the backyard. Oh wait I almost forgot the fish tank in the kitchen my dad’s personal hobby. I have never felt so at home with any of my families sadly I will only be here for a month. It’s a temporary situation until my third family gets home from vacations. So I’m working hard to enjoy the little time that I have.
