I live in Tra Vinh, a beautiful
province in the South of Viet Nam.
My family live in a small house but
it is very comfortable.
From my bedroom, I can see the river,
so it's very cool in the summer.
It is about 3 kms from my house to school.
I usually go to school by bike.
Our home town is small but it has
enough facilities such as schools,
hospitals, supermarkets, movie theatres,
hotels, restaurants, stadiums, swimmingpools and so on.

I like the computer room in my school

Dear Nga,
I live in Tra Vinh, a beautiful province in the South of Viet Nam. My family live in a
small house but it is very comfortable. From my bedroom, I can see the river, so it's
very cool in the summer.
My school is one of the largest schools in Cau Ngang district. It is about 3 kms from
my house to school. I usually go to school by bike. Our home town is small but it
has enough facilities such as schools, hospitals, supermarkets, movie theatres,
hotels, restaurants, stadiums, swimming-pools and so on. I like the computer room
in my school because I can learn how to use the computer.
I hope you come here next summer.
Please send my best regards to your parents.
Warmest regards,
Anh
