Dear Jane,
It was great to hear from you! 
You asked me about hobbies which are popular with Russian teens. Well, many teenagers are interested in music and playing computer games. Others are into collecting things or doing sports. As for me, my hobby is music. I like listening to music and I learn to play some instruments. However, I feel I don’t have enough time for my hobby as I’ve got too much homework. If I had more free time, I’d take up photography. 
What are you going to do in summer? Will you stay with your grandparents? Would you like to visit other countries?
Sorry, I’d better go now. I’ve got to get ready for my piano class. Wish me luck!
With love, 
(your name)
