I live in St-Barthélémy. St-Barthélémy is a little city near Angers, in the north-west of France and there are 9075 people living there. They are named "bartholoméens" for men and "bartholoméenes" for women. There is many big companies in the industrial park of St-Barthélémy, like Cointreau, Cotra, Leroy Merlin, Netto, thyssenkrup. The park and the castle of Pignerolles are very big monuments which organize every year events and shows, like "le cross du courrier de l'ouest". There are 5 schools. There is a little theater whose name is "le THV" and a big riding school. There are also many sports clubs, St-Barthélémy supports sportmen in every sport such as football, basketball, rugby, tennis, badminton, horse riding, rock climbing, hand ball, athletism, dancing, boxing, judo, and many other sports ! However the city supports intellectuals too with a very big library.

Your town looks awesome!We have a school in our town but it was shut down because our town is so tiny… Do you go to the riding school? Where did you live before you moved to St-Barthélémy? Was it quite a bit different? What do you like to do for fun?
yeah i go to the riding school but i don't practise, i just go to see my friends, before i moved to st-barthélémy, i live in "talmont st-hilaire" it's a very tiny town in a land which called "la bretagne" there it's rainning every day ! in my freetime i love read or practise sports with my friends like rock climbing, basket or many more .
hi I'm Yajaira thank you for answering my question I was getting kinda tired of nobody responding my messages. But you did that was nice bye.
I love to ride… Where I used to live it rains all the time too! I've never been rock climbing but I think I'd like it because I like to climb things and go on hikes.
