Interview

My new friend

Pedro Rodríguez

Last Monday I met a very interesting girl. Her name is Tulsi Patel. She is a student from the United States. Her parents are from India, but she born in United States. She is twenty years old. She lives in North Carolina. She studies biology.

She is a nice girl. She loves go to parties and dance. But she does not smoke or drink alcoholic drinks. She likes to go out with her friends. Two weeks ago, she visited Castro’s Bar in Tibas. I tell her that in Costa Rica people like to go out and dance salsa o meringue.

This is her second year. She is in a summer program for five weeks in Costa Rica. She is learning Spanish in Costa Rica. She chose Costa Rica because here it is necessary to speak people Spanish. Only a few groups speak English.

She wants to obtain a PhD in Biologist. She loves to study the human body. Maybe in the future she will be a scientist, researcher, or doctor. People that study biologist in United States have many jobs opportunities, but in Costa Rica it is the opposite.

She taught me some words in Hindu, like “hello” and “bye”. I love the environment and she encourages me to study biology.
