Nick's a boy from Filipinas. He´s 16 years old. His real name is Nickel Vincent Lucero Perez and he said: “Miss Isabel is my cousin”, because our English teacher (Miss Isabel) has the same surname (Pérez). This year we have written to many people from many countries. Writing e-mails is very interesting because you get to know oher people, with different culture, festivals and traditions, besides you can practise languages. Nick has been the most popular penpal and because of that we write this page. He started writing to one of us and at the end of the course we were a big group, sometimes we invited other friends, like Nerea or Mari Carmen to drop a line to him. His astral sign is Libra, so he is very friendly and sympathetic. He has got black brown hair, brown eyes, and little pimples in his face, he is mestizo. He likes soccer, but he doesn´t play it, he just likes watching it. He likes listening to rock, pop, rap, dance music... Nick's favourite bands are Garden, Hanson, BSB, Oasis, Bush, Boyzone, Blur... ..., his favourite Filipino bands are Eraserheads, River Maya, Sugar Hiccup, and many more. Nick is very lively and has lots of hobbies, he likes computer, internet, piano, computer games, meeting new friends, strolling, writing... He collects NBA cards. At school he has a lot of subjects and he hates Maths and Physics. Nick is ANTImaths!!!. He hates maths because it's difficult to understand, but his favourite subject is the English. He can speak Tagalog and English. His favourite food are sphagetti and also Macaroni Salad. He likes going to the beach, disco, pubs, malls. Nick's family is very big and his great grand father and great grand mother are already 90 years old. He has a sister who is very fun (on the right) and is taking Industrial Engineering, he also has a younger brother.
