 Making friends is not as difficult as it seems. Firstly, make up your mind about the 
kinds of people you want to meet. If you enjoy sports, you could join a sports club or a 
local sports team. If you enjoy reading, why not start a local book club? It’s a great way of 
getting a group of people who share the same interests together. 
 Writing to a pen pal or an e-pal is another good way to make friends. The advantage of 
this is that you can choose somebody who is your age with similar hobbies. Especially if 
you write to many people from different countries, it’s a great way to find out the 
similarities and the differences of their traditional cultures. 
 And finally when you meet people, remember to smile. Start a conversation by saying 
something nice about the other person. And ask people questions about themselves to 
show interest. Follow this advice and you will be well on the way to make lots of friends!
