Name: 3M.

Hi Nassim,

I am Rafik and this is my cousin Wasilla. We live in Batna, Algeria. We are mad about horse jumping.
We always practice horse jumping in the weekends. It’s really relaxing and we simply love it. Our
grandpa owns a very large farm and most of the times we practice our passion there.

We play with farm animals and sometimes we make picnics. We can take care of the horses. In
addition, we are able to wash and feed them but we can’t cure them when they are ill, because we
aren’t vets. In fact, I’m very musical, I like listening to Malouf and Kabyle songs. I play the guitar and
the piano as well. I think that I’m a clever, outgoing and patient kind of person. Wasilla likes cooking
and reading romantic stories. She’s adventurous, talented and tidy. Actually, Wasilla and I get on well
together and I’m happy about that.

Best wishes,

Rafik
