DESCRIPTION OF A PERSON

I'm going to describe my best friend, called Carla. She was born in 20th of october 1997. Now, she's 16th years old and she's from a small village near Figueres, called Vila-Sacra. Carla is studing first of bachelor of economics in IES Castelló d'Empúries. She plays football in a girls team in Cabanas, and she's hooked on the programme of MYHYV.

Carla is small and she's still slim with a good figure. She has a long, brown and neater hair. Her face is smallish, she's pale-skinned and she has brown freckles. Carla has brown eyes and thin eyebrows. Normally, she wears pullovers and hoodies with a pair of jeans or leggins. She's not very keen on wearing dresses and skirts. 

Carla is honest, hard working and generous with the people that she knows. Usually, she's cheerful and responsible. Carla is shy, but when you trust with Carla, she's very crazy and she has sense of humor. She has strong-willed. 

In my point of view, she's a big person and when I'm with Carla, I enjoy all the time. When the people say: the appearance can be deceptive, in Carla is the best example. Because, when you can see her the first time you can say: she's very shy, patience and quiet. But when you know her, you can see that she's very different, she's very crazy and funny. Carla is a very special best friend.

MINI TRIP IN MADRID

In the last December, my dad decided to did something different the day after Christmas. So, we decided to went to Madrid some days.

On 26th December, we took the car at seven o'clock and we went to the big city of Spain. We arrived there approximately at one o'clock and first, we went to install our things. After that, we went to have lunch and we walked to the Royal Palace for met with my uncles and my cousin. When we were together we walked to the Sant Miguel Market a typical place where the people eat tapas. Then, we went to visited the typical places that some of it are "Puerta del Sol" and "Plaza Mayor". In the evening my family and I went to search a typical restaurant to dinner.

TRADICION IN CATALONIA

In these days of Christmas we spend all time with the family and the people that matter for us. 

In a lot of countries, in the Christmas day there is Santa Claus that he distribute presents for all the families in the world. But, here in Catalonia there isn't any Santa Claus, we have "el tió” that consist in hit the trunk with a stick singing a song about it. When the song finish, all the children go to the kitchen or another room apart of the place where is the “tió” and they sing the song or they pray. After the trunk shit the presents, the children, run for lift the blanket and open the presents. And this things are made many times that the “tió” shit.

The “caga tió” is doing at night on 24th of december.  In my family, we go to my uncles house. First, we do the dinner, after, we shit the “tió” and when this finish, we have the dinner. 

I think that this is a special day where we spend a nice time with our family. 

Days before, the children give food to the "Tió"
