Win a holiday for two people for a month in the USA. Spend a week in New York and then drive across the country from east to west. For their application for the competition, we want people to write about their lives for a magazine article about "Typical lives".

My name is Melisa Adem and I'm 19 years old. I'm Turkish and I'm from Izmir. Izmir is a beautiful old city and is famous for its history. I live in a big house with my parents and I study at the university. At the moment, I am studying English. When I finish, I want to be a teacher. I love helping children.

From Monday to Friday, I get up at 7:30, have a shower and breakfast, and then leave for university. I usually go by bus and it takes thirty minutes to get from my house to the university. On the bus, I like reading or talking to my friends. At the weekend, I get up late, and I usually help my father in his shop in the afternoon. He sells souvenirs.

In my free time, I like going to the beach or taking my dog for a walk. I also love travelling. Last summer, I went on holiday with my boyfriend. We spent three weeks in July travelling around France and Italy. I can speak Italian, but I can't speak French. The holiday was fantastic. We didn't have a lot of money, so we decided to go camping.

I left school when I was 16 and travelled around the world for a year. I visited a lot of different countries. My favourite country was Japan. I had an amazing time there. I really liked the food. They eat a lot of fish and vegetables.

In my free time, I like playing football and going out with my friends. During the week, I get up at five thirty in the morning and leave my flat at a quarter to seven. When the weather is good, I cycle to work, but when it's cold I go by bus. I'm always tired in the morning because I go to bed late. I like playing computer games in the evening. It's a good way to relax.
