Life at Home

My parents met when they were still quite young. They got married in Miami when my mum was twenty one. Four years later my brother Kevin was born. My brother and I are almost six years apart. At first my parents and my bother lived in a town called *******, but bfore I was born they decided to build a house in a small village called ***** which is close to ******. All of my parents friends and thier families helped building the house.

When my brother was six years old, he got a turtle which he named Gozilla. Since my mother and my brother are allergical to most animals, they chose the turtle which would give them no problems. When I was old enough, I also got a turtle, but unfortunately it died after a few years. The reason were parasites.
Kevin moved out of our parents home three years ago. He moved into a flat in a city called ******. However, there was no room for Gozilla in his flat, so Gozilla stayed with us. But now Kevin will move again to a village near our house.  He and his girlfriend are expecting a baby boy this fall. And the nice thing is that there will be enough room for Gozilla in the garden where Kevin will have a big enclosure for it. My mum is form ****** which is fifteen minutes away from ******. She is a qualified MTA. But now she is working in my father's company which my brother close, too.

My father is from Berlin, the capital city of Germany. When he was a teenager, he and his family moved to *****.
My family and I have always travelled durring summer vacation, either by plane or car. Travel has always been important to us because we wanted to get to know other cultures and people. That is why I have been to many countries already, for example Italy, Tunesia, Egypt, Denmark, Spain, Greece, the USA etc..
I like to visit my grandmother once a week because I think my grandma's spinach is the best. It just tastes so very good. My mother has two sisters. The older sister called Marina. She is married but has no children. The younger sister, Ilona, is also married and has a little boy who is eight years old. His name is Nick and he goes to primary school. My cousin and I have a tradition. Before Christmas we get together for baking Christmas cookies. My aunts and their families live in the same village as my parents and I. My father has just one brother who moved back to Berlin when he was twenty one.

Although my family is rather small, we are very close and they support me in all my projects.
