Hey Matt,

How’s everything? I am having a blast here. I have already gotten used to living here. The people
are nice and I get along really well with my roommates. I am starting to cook my own meals since
eating out is really expensive. There is a stove on the first floor of the apartment building that we
can all use, so I am trying to cook late in the evening when nobody uses it. One thing I am not used
to are the big bills they use here in England. I just realized how awful they are. I am thinking of
buying a bike; that could be great help to move around here in London. What color do you prefer
for a bike? My pal Gina has a gray mountain bike which is really nice. What have you thought
about your next vacation? Have you made any plans? I have a school break in a couple of weeks so
I am considering traveling. Today, I analyzed some options and made my mind. I just bought a
ticket to go to the south of Spain. They say it is not so cold there during winter, so I think that
could be a cool place to visit on my Christmas break. Today I went downtown and I got a pair of
pants and some cool blue sneakers in a shop on Main Street. I’ll take a picture of them later and I’ll
send it to you. I’ll say good-bye for now. I’m going to the movies later. I miss you pal. Write me
soon!

Chris
