Sometimes, especially in the beginning.

Germany.

Once a year I go to Germany, and sometimes I go to another country another time, but not always.
Do you know all of the main staff at the hotel?
Most of them.
Do you spend more or less time with you family after you moved to the hotel?
More, because my mum, she kind of works at home, since the hotel is our home. So I see her when I get home from school and before. In Germany I always had to wait either at school or at home for her.
Can you tell me your normal daily routine?
I wake up in my room. I put on my school uniform, I drive to school one hour, I stay at school until 3 o'clock and then I drive home. Then I do my homework, sometimes I swim in the pool. I eat dinner, I take a shower and then I go to sleep.
