What do you do on a day off?

Read for the main idea

My name is Defne. I am from İzmir, but I live in İstanbul now. I am a flight attendant. Today I am not at work. I have breakfast at home at nine. I drink tea and eat bread and cheese.

At eleven, I meet my friend Maya in a small park. We walk and talk. Maya has a new book in her bag. I want to read it, too. In the afternoon, I go to my dance class. I love dancing. After class, I buy some fruit and go home. It is a quiet, happy day.
