He works every day, from 2 pm to 10 pm. On weekends he is always at work. He doesn’t have a single day off. Often, he works long hours and he travels abroad. Usually, he travels with the national soccer team. He rarely reports on sports events such as wrestling and boxing. He is very good at his job. He works with a lot of passion.

Every Friday, he hosts a sports program on the radio. The program provides information on the sports activities of the week. Usually, he invites famous soccer players to the studio. Once a month, he interviews different athletes. His program has many listeners.

I often go to my father’s office. He has many souvenirs from different countries of the world in his office. I enjoy spending time with my father. He works hard! He doesn’t have much time, but I love him so much!
