Dear David,
I saw your name on the Internet so I decided to write to you and exchange
information about each other.
My name is Mehdi. I am 17 years old. I am a secondary school pupil. I live
with my family. We are Algerians and we live in the city of Algiers. I have two
brothers and a sister and I am the youngest. My father is a carpenter while my
mother is a teacher.
During the week, I am very busy with my studies, so I always prepare my
schoolwork and do my exercises. I rarely go out. However, on weekends, I
sometimes join friends to play some sports.
I can’t wait to hear from you soon.
Yours faithfully,
Mehdi
