NINA NORWAY

I live in a village on Norway's Atlantic coast. I get up at
7:30am and walk to college. Classes begin at 8:30am
and inish at 3 m. After that, I go to one of the college
clubs. These are not very expensive and there are lots to
choose from. I do athletics and football but you can also
do things like folk dancing and cross-country skiing.
When my r2arents come home from worR, my dad
makes dinner and we all eat together. After that, my
mum takes me out for a driving lesson. I've got my test
soon and I need to practise!

I'm from a small town in Queensland. Most people in
Australia live near the coast, but we live on a cattle
farm in the centre of the country. I get up at around
7am and have breakfast. My mum teaches at my
college, so I usually go with her in the car instead of
taking the bus. College starts at 8:30am and finishe
at 4Qm. When I get home, I help my clad on the farm
for a few hours. In the evenings, I try to watch TV but
I'm usually too tired. I go to bed at about 10:00pm.
