My Friend John.
My friend's name is John. John is from Amsterdam in Holland. He is Dutch. He is married and has two children.
His wife, Helen, is American. She is from New York in the United States. Her family is still in New York, but she now works and lives with John in Milan. They speak English, Dutch, German and Italian!
Their children attend a local primary school. The children go to school with other children from all over the world. Fiona, their daughter, has friends from France, Switzerland, Austria and Sweden. Peter, their son, goes to school with students from South Africa, Portugal, Spain and Canada.
