Dear Lan,
I live in a small house. My house looks very nice. From my bedroom window, I can see a beautiful park with green trees and flowers. I don’t live far from my school, so I usually walk there.
In my neighborhood, there is a swimming pool, a library, a post office and a beautiful park. I like the library best because I can study and read many interesting books there.
I would like to say goodbye now. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
Love,
Hoa
