Hi, my name is Maria Isabel and I'm 11. I live in Iquitos, Peru. My street is a lot of fun and every night the people who live here play card games and bingo. When I come home from school I do my homework so I can go and play with my girlfriends. I love to play volleyball but my passion is theatre. I'm in a theatre group at school and we rehearse three times a week. We are getting ready for a competition which is an important one in my region. When I'm older I want to be a vet so I can take care of the animals in my community. You know there are many animals which are in danger of becoming extinct in my country and I'm trying to teach my community to respect the lives of animals which are in danger of extinction. I like theatre because it allows me to express my opinions, I enjoy it a lot and besides I want my parents to be proud of me.
