Hi, I am Marianna and I am sixteen. I was really excited when I heard about your cooking classes. I want to learn how can I cook some international dishes, because I think It is so interesting. When I was eight I wanted to cook a cake from Japan, although I didn’t make a good cake I was happy because of own process. In my opinion I wish to do it because I really enjoy finding out about different others culture and traditions. Of course, It is not one reason for taking your classes, I just would like to find more friends and try a new hobby.

What is about your schedule?

I wanted to ask you about this thing, It is the most important thing for me, because I have a job from 8 a.m to 6 p.m. I hope that you have some time for me and I will be able to come to you.
