Although for two years it was playing with the Valencian handball selection and he played the Championship of Spain. After the Championship, he became ill of anemia and he wanted to focus on his studies and he stopped playing. Now he is studying a double degree in the University, ADA and law, and he has spired me to study law. He likes traveling whethever with friends or alone. First time he went out Spain was when he traveled to Italy with school Erasmus. When he came back, he said that every year he would travel to any site, and being fulfilled.

I think my grandparents had so difficult but interesting life because lose one son have been so sadness and it’s something I can put up with.
All of this had a positive part, my uncle traveled so much before die thanks to my grandparents.
My father Carlos was born in Sueca in 1973. His life changed completely when he got married. They moved to Algemesi because he was looking for a job in Algemesi because my mother lived in this city.
In 1991, the money was a problem in Sueca . At first,things weren’t easy for my parents , but he got a job in the pub of her aunt, and he was hard-working, because he was collecting some money for buying anything he wanted . But after people of the pub gave he some tip . Carlos made everyone smile. He’s the friendliest person I’ve ever know.
1997 was a very special year for Carlos . While he was on holidays, he met my mother! As soon as they met , they fell in love . My mum was 2 years older than my dad . But the family was happy about the relantionship. However , in the end , Carlos and Marian had two children , my brother Pau and me.
Today, my parents and my mother work together in Macoalge. And my family always travels in summer by car , to another place or if we can’t go by car , we take a plane . It’s a family traditions thanks to my mum and dad know on summer holidays.
Grandmother
My grandmother Rosa was born in Almusafes in 1940, 24th January. When she was a child his family moved to Algemesí, where she lives nowadays.
When my grandmother was young there weren’t the same possibilites to go to school as now. She had been a clever student before she left school. Unfortunatly, her dad died at war and she had to start working at the age of 12 in a warehouse.
In the 1956 Rosa met for the first time my grandfather Juan. She fell in love with him and they got married in 1961. They had got three children. When my grandmother grew-up my great-mother was sick and Rosa had a fight with her brother. They have never talked again since this day. But my grandmother is strong and she took care oh her mum.
My grandfather died 10 years ago, my grandmother has been sad but she’s a cheerful person and she’s always smiling. I see her every day before going to school and she always makes me laugh. She’s also very friendly and sociable. At present she’s the president of the retireds. When I grow up, I want to be like her.
BROTHER
My brother, David, was born in Alzira in 1996. His life, until now, has been full of important events, marked by sport and travels.
Since 2003 my brother has been playing handball, it was a very good player and in the age of seventeen the Spanish national handball team selected him for training but they only classifited him for this time. Although for two years it was playing with the Valencian handball selection and he played the Championship of Spain. After the Championship, he became ill of anemia and he wanted to focus on his studies and he stopped playing.
Now he is studying a double degree in the University, ADA and law, and he has spired me to study law.
He likes traveling whethever with friends or alone.
First time he went out Spain was when he traveled to Italy with school Erasmus. When he came back, he said that every year he would travel to any site, and being fulfilled.
Every holiday he takes advantage of it to go to a place, either in Spain or outside.
This year he plans to go to Poland to celebrate the end of the year, while I’ll stick here. I wish I could go with him !!
I love him and I am very happy to live with him, because as many times he brights my day.
