Zala

by Hannah from Ljubljana

My hero is my best friend. Her name is Zala and she is 20 years old. She is also my neighbour, so we live very close to each other. We have known each other since she was four and I was one year old, so basically our whole life. A year ago she started studying biology in a different town so she had to move and we are not able to see each other as often as we used to. But she definitely still deserves to be called my hero.

My hero has done a lot of good things for me but among all of them, one of the most important things was that she took care of me while I was feeling very sad due to my parents' divorce. Considering she is 3 years older than me she was very good at it and she knew how to give me advice whenever I needed one. Even my mom says she was just like a second mother to me and it helped a lot to have her by my side.

She is very important to me because she is one of the kindest and the most fun persons I know and she always helps me out when I am in trouble. She is making a difference in my life almost every day because she is very clever and I can learn so many things from her and also because she has a very interesting and diverse life so in a way that helps me to be more brave because she likes me to get out of my comfort zone as often as possible.
