Hi Alex, Thank you for your letters. I always look forward to them with impatience. (Better to say, "I always look forward to them, though somewhat impatiently.) I spend almost every summer the same way -- at my dacha (vacation home). In my opinion, it is the most beautiful and coziest place on earth. This is the place where you can do whatever you want. My hobby is fishing. I spend all my time doing it. Of course, every person wants to visit all the countries of the world, but personally I'm more likely to visit Germany than ________. Bye, Tim * Do not end sentences with a comma. Use a period.
