MY FRIEND
Luis has been my close friend for two years. I first met him on a
school exchange trip to Calais, France. I asked him the way to the
library and we started talking. We’ve been friends ever since.
Luis is quite good-looking. He’s tall and slim, with olive skin and
curly dark hair. Like many French people, he has a great sense of
style, so he always looks well-dressed even in casual clothes.
Luis is very outgoing. He is always friendly and loves to have fun.
He’s got a fantastic sense of humour and he always makes me laugh.
He could be funny and serious at the same time. Talking to me, he is
always sincere and I can share my secrets with him. However, he can
be a bit immature at times. For example, when he doesn’t get what he
wants, he acts childishly and stamps his feet.
Speaking about his interest I should say Luis is very keen on water
sports. He likes sailing and he spends a lot of time on his boat. He
enjoys scuba diving, too, and loves exploring life under the sea.
All in all, I’m glad to have Luis as my friend. It’s a pleasure to be
with him and I really enjoy his company. I’m sure we’ll always be close
friends.
