Dear Amel

I've found your address on the Internet. I'm writing because I want to know more about your country. But
I have to introduce myself first.

My name is Kirsi, I’m from Finland. I have sixteen years old. I study at secondary school. Nearly everyone
my age goes to school. I want to become a journalist later. So I will study hard for it.

My family is typical Finnish family: Mum and Dad and two children ( my brother Jari and me ). Jari is
fourteen years old. My mother is housewife and my father is an electrician. Our house is small. We have
two pets; a dog and parrot. Both of them are Jari’s pets.

On weekdays, I generally get up early in order to prepare myself for school, which is a little bit far from
my home. I always go there by bus. I have classes from 8:30 to 12 in the morning and from 2 to 4 in the
afternoon. I have lunch either at the canteen or at fast food restaurant. I revise my lesson at 7:00 in
the afternoon. I rarely go out at the weekend, I prefer to relax at home watching TV.

Finland is in north of Europe, very famous for its saunas and beautiful lakes. Winter is terrible. Always
freezing. But summer is cool.

My Love

Kirsi

P.S Find my photos in attachment. Please, send me some information about Algeria.
