The best senior in the world is my gran. She’s the best gran and my guardian angel. She’s protected me and looked over me, since I was born. She’s the best soup cook and the best pastry maker, her food is to die for.
Grandmother
Culture, Inspirational People | September 19, 2014By Hana.K Frankston High School
My grandmother is an amazing woman and an inspirational person to me. Her name is Anka Kurbalija.
She is 73 years old but she still cleans the house like it’s no big deal. She still walks just for pleasure, not because she has to. She always gives me her words of wisdom that I listen to over and over again. She is the same hard working woman that she was 50 years ago.
