Cordillera, Paraguay

Everyday, no matter if it is raining, freezing or very hot out, we have school, and we have a lot of homework. In my free time, I like to practice the guitar and listen to music by Simple Plan. My biggest dream is to go to the United States to study. Then I would like to come back to my country, to my town, and help my people. I believe that everything is possible if one wants it, it is just a question of will. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ About Tobatí :Tobatí is both a town and a provincial district within the department (state) of Cordillera, Paraguay.

I live in Tobati with my mom, my dad and my 5-year-old sister. In school, I most enjoy gym class, English, history and geography. I hope to someday reach what I’ve always wanted to achieve, and that is to be an English and gym teacher and graduate as the best in the United States. So that I can achieve my dream, I am going to study a lot and keep studying so that I can be a successful person and be able to help my family and my community. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ About Tobatí :Tobatí is both a town and a provincial district within the department (state) of Cordillera, Paraguay.

Cordillera, Paraguay

I am 15 years old and live with my family in Tobati, Cordillera. I study at the Institute Reinaldo Macchi. I really like sciences and speaking languages like Guarani, Spanish and a little Portuguese and English. At this point in my life I am studying a lot of English so that I will be able to express myself in a language which is very important in everyday life. In my free time I like to ride around on my bicycle and to read books. In my high school, the professors teach very well and I like that because the education that I receive will help me to build a better future for me and my family. When I am older I want to study something related to the sciences but I haven’t decided what. I am sure that I will find the right path follow. At home, my mom takes care of the house and the children and my dad is a farmer. I have 11 brothers and sisters; some of them are already adults and have their own families. ~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~*~ About Tobatí :Tobatí is both a town and a provin...
