Click to be my pen pal.

Hi! My name is Katarina Rocha (aka Kat). I just finished my seventh grade year and had a great time. I am now thirteen. This is my ninth year playing soccer and I can not wait until my upcoming years. I play on the Santa Barbara Soccer Club year-round and love it. I enjoy playing center midfield for our team and on a rare occasion forward. I can not wait until Norway comes. I am going to have such a great time and the experience will be AMAZING. As much as I like soccer, I also enjoy playing volleyball and baseball for my school team. I also like to swim but that is mostly for fun with my family, I have three siblings Gabby 11, Sofia 9, and Nicolas 6.

That makes me the oldest and the babysitter for most events. I also have two pets. A dog named Lucky and a cat named Willow, they are not the best of friends. My parent's names are Gabriel and Tanya they are a big support in my life. My dad will also be traveling to Norway with the team so I am lucky that I get to share this experience with my dad. On the plane ride I will be reading, listening to music and talking to my friends.

These are some of my many hobbies. I have been out of the country before. I have been to Mexico about five time and to Chile three times. I would have to say that visiting Chile is my favorite place to go because of all the family I have there.

I am sure that Norway will become one of my favorite memories and I will never forget the trip. I have not been to Europe so that will also be exciting. My team is very talented and I know that we all are going to have a great time and hopefully, win the cup! That would be icing on the cake. Overall Norway is going to be a trip of a lifetime for me. Farewell for now!!!
