Tell me about yourself

Hello! My name is Lorena and I'm seventeen. I'm from Catalonia and I live in Rosselló, a small town near Lleida. The members of my family are my dad Josep, my mom Neus and my sister Eunice. Something more personal about me is that I love anime, manga, K-pop and I'm crazy about cosplaying. I also like skateboarding and drawing. I'm studying this because I think it's nice to help people and it makes me grow as a person. I would like this subject to give me more knowledge about this cool language.
