Hi,
there is a competition you can take part in.All you have to do is
finish the story below, adding no more than 300 words. Give it a title
too. Just one more thing: because the theme of the International Year
of Youth relates to dialog and understanding across cultures,
generations, borders, etc., we want you to include one thing about
your culture in your story. It could be a song, a tradition, a piece

stroies for a competition;-) If you are interested please send your
work to me until the 30th of September together with your photo ;-)
