Meet Antonia!

Introduction:

For this week's field note, I interviewed one of my student's little sister, Antonia! She is eight years old and is in first grade. Her favorite colors are pink and blue, and her favorite animal is a dog. Read on to learn all about Antonia and to get a glimpse of what living in Constanta is like from a kid's perspective!

What do you eat for breakfast, lunch and dinner?:

For breakfast, I have milk and cereal, usually cheerios. For lunch, I eat ciorbă, which is a type of Romanian soup with potatoes, diced vegetables and meatballs. For dinner, I eat pasta (usually spaghetti), or drumsticks with potatoes.

What is your house like?:

My house is pretty big! We have a ground floor, a first floor and an attic. I have my own room that I share with my mom. We also have a garden where we grow flowers, grass and sour cherry trees. There is also a shed with a small kitchen and a grill in our garden. 

What chores do you have at home?:

I don't really have chores, but I do have to pick up my toys after I play with them. Generally, my mom just asks me to pick up after myself.

What jobs do your parents have?:

My mom used to be a cook, but now she doesn't work. My dad is a driver for a company called Petrom.
