Hello everyone.

My name is Claver. I am 51. I come from Burundi, in Central Africa. I am married. My wife's name is Angelina. I have got eight children. The first born is 27 years old and the youngest is 6 years old. I have got five sons, three daughters and any pets.

I have been in Australia for one year and two months. I arrived in Australia on 19th June 2007 in a very cold morning. Before I came to Australia I lived in a refugee camp in Tanzania. Over there life was very hard.

I like to listen to music and working with the computer. My hobbies are playing soccer and playing the piano. My special skill is good hand-writing. Apart my mother language Kirundi, I can speak French, Swahili and little English as well.

I learn English three days a week, Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays at Southbank Institute of Technology in the Language, Literacy and Numeracy Program (LLNP) course. My wife studies English at the same Institute as well. My English teachers are very friendly and helpful. Thanks to their help I hope to improve my speaking quickly.

In the future I dream to be an interpreter. But failing that I will do any other job I can.

For a holyday I like to go at Gold Coast. A favourite place to visit is Canberra the Capital city of Australia.

So now here are ten things that I like:-

1. I like to listen to music. 2. I like playing soccer. 3. I like playing the piano. 4. I like working with the computer. 5. I love my family. 6. I like studying English language. 7. I like Catholic Church. 8. I like mild weather. 9. I like Australian fruit. 10. I like watching TV.

Thank you very much, bye for today.

Regards.

Claver.
