Hi, Liam!
I'm really happy to be your penfriend. I'm 14 years old and I live in Calgary, Canada. I have two little brothers, Brian and Sam. I'm the only girl.
I'm active ( 积 极 的) in sports and I'm always trying something interesting. I like playing hockey ( 曲 棍 球) in winter. It's fun! But summer is my favorite time of the year. I love skateboarding and rock climbing (滑滑板和攀岩) in summer.
Many girls think skateboarding is difficult, but it is easy and fun for me. I often skateboard in the park after school. I'm good at jumping with the skateboard!
Rock climbing is also really fun. I usually climb with my dad on the weekend. We can't do it on real mountains often because we live in the city. We often do indoor rock climbing.
So that's me — Little Miss Active! My friends like to call me that. I like the name. What sports do you like? Please write back soon.
Bye for now
Anne
