Click to be my pen pal.

Hi! My name is Sydney Read, and I am 13 years old. I am going into 8th grade at La Colina Junior High. I have been playing soccer since I was five, and my favorite position to play is defense. I play club soccer with Real Santa Barbara along with Jordan and Adaezia. I love to travel and have been lucky to go to some incredible places like Australia, New Zealand and France, but I have never been to Norway. I am really excited that we will get to play soccer and that I am going with friends. Some of the other things I am looking forward to in Norway are meeting people my age from all over the world, learning about different cultures, learning some Norwegian, and having fun!

When I am not playing soccer I like to hang out with friends, travel, listen to music, shop, and watch movies. I live with my older brother, Jackson, my mom, Wendy, my dad, James (who I am happy to say is coming to Norway with me!) and my dogs, Hank and Charlie.
