Hello, introduce yourself please.
My name is Laila Trueb. I am 16 years old and I was born on March 14, 2010. I am from Switzerland and I currently live in Villena, Alicante, in Spain where I train at the Ferrero Academy. I am a junior tennis player transitioning from U16 to U18 competition.
What languages do you speak?
