Hi Dave,
I hope you’re OK. I’m here in Edinburgh. It’s great. There are a lot of things to do. I like the school, too. The
teacher is really nice; she speaks very clearly so I can understand her easily. The people in the shops and in the
street are more difficult to understand.
I’ve got two new friends: Miguel and Roberta. Miguel is from Brazil. We play football after school. He can play
really well. His three brothers in Brazil are also brilliant footballers.
