At 235 An Binh village, Cao Lanh district, Dong Thap province
September 25, 1997
Dear Vi
I live in Cao Lanh, a small town. My family and I live in a beautiful house with a small garden. From the bedroom window I can see a beautiful park with green trees and flowers. I often go to school by bike. It’s about 5 km from my house to school. In my neighborhood is the supermarket because it has plentiful foods and candies for me to choose
Write to me soon and tell me about your neighborhood
Love
Vi
