Hello, my name’s Carmen. I’m married and my husband’s
name is Cesar. We’re from Mexico, but we don’t live in
Mexico City. We live in a city called Mérida. I work for a
mobile phone company, but I don’t have a new phone.
My phone is three years old! We live in a very nice flat
in the centre of the city and we have two daughters,
Marissa and Teresa. Marissa’s nine and Teresa’s twelve.
They both study English at school – they’re very good.
They like rock music, football and Italian food, but they
don’t like Chinese food – or homework!
