Life in Spain: Personal Reflections and Social Issues

Sorry I haven’t written before, but I’ve been very busy with my exams. Thanks for your e-mail. I liked your photos very much!

I’ll tell you a bit about myself. I like surfing the internet, watching TV, and listening to music. My favourite sport is climbing, so I often go climbing with my friends at the weekends.

Write back soon and tell me more about you.

All the best,

Melody
