My name is Soós Erna and I’m 14 years old. I live in Miskolc with my family in a nice flat near the
university.
I have got an older sister. Her name is Róza and she is 16. She goes to Avasi Secondary School. She is in

My mother is an English teacher at Diósgyőri Reformed School and my dad is a sales manager. She
usually works from home. I usually get on well with my parents. They always support me and help me.
We spend a lot of time together. In the evening we watch TV together. I like Asia Express or cooking
competitions.

We have got a pet cat. Her name is Tamara and she is a British shorthair. She is very cute and fluffy. she
sleeps a lot and she is usually very calm. She often spends time in my room especially when I am
studying or watching TV.
We have already had pet rabbits, fish and birds too. We love animals.

I am not tall but not short either. I am slim and I have got long brown hair and brown eyes. People say I
take after my mum and my sister takes after our dad.
I am usually cheerful and happy. I think I am helpful and kind. I like creative things like decorating my
room or writing a journal.

Hobbies and free time

I enjoy watching TV shows, my favourite now is Gilmore Girls which was a popular TV show 25 years
ago. I love it , it is funny and also very meaningful. It is about a single mum and her daughter. They live
in a small town in the USA. The people are really funny and kind. And I laugh a lot. I like watching series
on Netflix. I watch them in English with subtitles. We also subscribe to other streaming services such as
HBO, Amazon prime and Disney. My mum thinks it is very important to watch them in English so my
English can be better. I really like it, that you can stop watching series whenever I want and when I stop
them, I can continue watching them where I left off. However, there are some shows I like watching on
Hungarian Tv too. They are. Asia express, where couples compete while travelling and completing
challenges. I also like cooking competitions. And I sometimes watch my Grandmother’s favourite TV

She sometimes teaches me to cook or we do the gardening together. She has got a lovely cat called
Manci. She is a rescue cat.

My grandfather, Imi papó lives in Siófok with his wife, Ronny. We spend time with them in the summer.

small village. I loved it.
We usually meet at Christmas too, usually at our home or at my aunt’s in Budapest.

My mother has got a twin sister, called Vera. She lives in Budapest with her husband. Vera works for a
big French medical company in an office. And Adam is a music producer. He is British and really cool. I
love him, he is very funny.

My father’s parents live in Miskolc near us. They had a small cottage near a lake in Vadna and we spent a
lot of time there when I was younger. We could play outside a lot with my cousins and swam in the pool.
Unfortunately, they sold the house because they are old now, and it was very hard to take care of the
house and the garden, too.
My grandmother can cook really well and she always tells us stories about her childhood.
We usually talk on the phone and visit them every month.
My father has got two brothers. Roland and Marci. Roland has got two children, my cousins. Sára is 18
and Maja is 16. I love them, and we really get on very well. We spent a lot of time together when we
were little. When we meet we hang out, make funny videos, play board games. Or sometimes we watch
cartoons.
Marci got married in August last year. It was a lovely wedding in a village. We danced a lot and had so
much fun. His wife is Zsófi. She is a lovely person. Kind and funny too. I think they are great together.
They have just had a baby in December. Her name is Jázmin. I am really happy that there is a new baby
in our family.
