Dear Stephanie
How are you? I’m very well. I came in Dublin two weeks
ago for to study at a language school. I want learn english
because is a very important language. I’m stay with a Irish
family. They’ve got two son and a dauhgter. Mr Kendall
is teacher and Mrs Kendall work in a hospital. The Irish is
very kind, but they speak very quickly!
I study in the morning. My teachers name is Ann. She
said me that my English is OK, but I do a lot of mistakes.
Ann don’t give us too much homework, so in the afternoons
I go always sightseeing. Dublin is much more big than my
town. I like very much painting and I’m very interesting
for modern art, so I visit galleries and museums. I’ve met
a girl named Martina. She came from Spain and go to
Trinity College. Last night we go to the cinema, but the
film wasn’t very exiting.
Do you like to visit me? Why don’t you come for a
weekend?
I’d love to see you.
Write to me soon.
Love, KatiP.S. Here’s my new email address:
