Come meet your 3 new youth reporters...

Mariam is a very nice and simple girl, she is quite shy at first sight but when you get to know her, she can be a very funny person. However, she's not punctual at all, which I can tell is rather annoying but I don't hold it against her. I think she is smart and really critical. Most of the time, she's analysing people’s personnality. Actually, Mariam would like to be a psychologist or a lawyer in the future.

This French-Syrian girl can speak Arabic and is really aware of Syria’s history and news. Her two mother countries-France and Syria- mean a lot to her, she's really involved in both cultures. Family is also very important to her, for example, spending time or watching television with her parents and her sister on Wednesday evening is a tradition.

Finally, if you want to be her friend, you should be a trustworthy and understanding person, whom she can count on. Because this is what she values most in her friends.

by Marie-Anne

Marie-Anne is a very sympathic French of Vietnamese descent girl, very proud of her origins. She has never gone to her country but she really wants to. If you need some help or someone to talk, she always will be there for you as a very open-minded and helpful friend. Marie-Anne is very punctual. If one day you have a meeting with her, I advise you not to be late: she will make you run, even if she hates sport.

Her favorite hobby is drawing. She has been following drawing lessons for two years. She likes listening to music while she’s drawing. It’s very inspiring, she says. In later life, Marie-Anne would like to work in the health area, maybe as a doctor or a chemist. She is not afraid of the long-lasting studies to be a doctor; she can be very hard-working.

by Juliette

Juliette is a cheerful, dynamic and friendly girl. When she meets new people she will get out of her way to try and know them better. And I think she's quite considerate and dependable and in the same time candid and acute. If you ask her about something she will give her opinion without dithering. Watch out, she's not very punctual, when you have an appointement with her you must allow her an additional 15 minutes.

She enjoys sports -one of her dreams is to attend the 2016 Rio Olympics!- and watching films and series, she does drama two hours a week and Juliette is interested by medias and healthcare. She would like to become a journalist or a doctor, a job that would suit her very well because she's rather helpful.

Her family is extremely important for her, ans she spends all her holidays are in the Pays-Basque country with them... It is such as a tradition.
