Dear Tom,
Thank you for your recent letter. I was glad to hear from you again.
I want to tell you that my mother and I are spending a week in Kazakhstan. I'm so happy to be here, as it's my very first time travelling.
We've already visited a lot of places including some big cities, a zoo, local theater and a museum. Most of all I liked the theater, as the performance was very good with elements of singing and dancing.
By the way, we're coming back in a few days. I'm looking forward to meeting my father and little sister at the airport in my city. Write back soon.
Best wishes,
