Kostas, My Germany

My parents and I moved to Germany. We left our country because of a crisis in Greece. My mother is 44 years old and works as a nurse. My father is 48 years old and he is a pharmacist assistant. We thought things would be harder but it was actually quite easy. Our relatives over here helped us a lot. When I arrived here unfortunately I got sick. I had to have kidney surgery at a hospital. Everything went well and we are happy. People over here are very friendly and nice. Berlin is a pretty city and has a lot of attractions. I went to pre-school and now I’m attending the European school “Athene”. I like the school very much and the teachers also. I have many friends. I’m learning German, Greek and English. I enjoy life here and my family is content. But I do miss my home country. I often go there in school holidays. Over there we have a lot of sun and ocean. I miss Greece.
