Dear Sara,

We are on vacation in Sharjah. Tarek and his wife Olivia are here with us! It’s fantastic to see
them again!

They live in a small house in Dubai and their office is in the house. Tarek isn’t from the
U.A.E. He is from Guatemala. He and his wife are coworkers. They draw and write picture
books for children. They are famous!

Tarek’s grandson, Marwan, is 28 years old. He is an English teacher in the local school.
Nayfa, Marwan’s wife, is from Oman and they live in a beautiful apartment near Dubai
International Airport. Their apartment belongs to Tarek. Their neighbors are my close friends,
Jessica and Jenny. They are school teachers, too. Nayfa’s brother, Sami, is Marwan’s old
classmate from school. That’s a coincidence! He’s a pilot for Emirates and flies around the
world.

Olivia and Tarek’ children also work in Dubai, but their house is in the country. Where is your
house? Is it in the country or the city?

Hope to see you again soon!

Take care,
Reem
