Here is my post:

I'm not a big fan of technology, but of course I can't live without it. I am very dependant on the microwave, I spend most of my time working on my computer, and I can’t live without my cell phone.

But when I really think about it, my favourite piece of technology is the Kobo e-reader. Kobo is a brand of an electronic book reader, just like Kindle, and I got it as a birthday gift about 6 years ago from my sister. You can download e-books from the internet, either on EPUB or PDF formats at a much cheaper price than paper books, but most of the time I find and download the e-books I want for free. It not only saves me a lot of money, but I can also take it with me everywhere I go because it is light and small and fits in my purse. I often use it in the metro or bus when I travel to work. And it’s also special because the screen doesn’t shine like a computer’s screen so it doesn’t make your eyes tired after reading.

I have to say that I still enjoy reading paper books, but when I know I can find the book I want for free, I use my Kobo. Sadly, in Chile books are too expensive so it’s hard to get all the books you want. If I didn’t have my Kobo, I wouldn’t be able to access many books. Another important thing is that an electronic book reader is good for the environment because it saves trees from being cut for paper production. Therefore, my Kobo reader has been a really good gift for me and the environment!
