Subject: Hello from Edinburgh!
Dear Aleks,
This is my second month in Edinburgh—can you believe it? I love it here. I'm so happy I decided to go to university in Scotland. Life is very different here. I share an apartment (公寓)with two other students. Each day I get up at around 7:30 am and walk to the university alone. On the way I eat breakfast in a coffee shop. At university I have classes all morning. My classmates come from all over the world-there are lots of Chinese and Nigerian people. We all have lunch together in the dining hall—usually sandwiches. In the afternoon I read books in the library. In the evening I go to the cinema or go for a walk around the town with my classmates, except on Fridays and Saturdays, when I wash the dishes at an Italian restaurant.
I'm even learning some Italian! I miss living at home, especially Mum's cooking and your jokes. Edinburgh is very small compared with our city Toronto in Canada. And it's cold even in summer!
I miss you, little brother—write soon!
Yours,
Stan
