Martin’s Letter.

London

Great Britain

20th September

Dear Lena,

	I am Martin Oldfield. I’m Jim’s friend. I live in London. Last summer I visited Russia. It was really great! I was in St Petersburg. It’s such a beautiful and interesting city. I spent two weeks there. The weather was fine. We went sightseeing. We travelled on a comfortable bus round the city. But best of all I enjoyed the palaces which are situated near St Peter. We were in Pavlovsk, Pushkin and Peterhof. 

	There is the most interesting, great and beautiful palace in Peterhof. It was amazing  to see so many fountains there. The guide told us a lot of stories and legends about them. It was interesting to listen to him. After the  trip we returned to the city by ship. It was fantastic! For a minute I imagined myself as a seaman. 

	I was very happy to visit Russia. It helped me decided to study the Russian language. I would like to learn more about the Russian history and literature. I like studying languages. I know a little French and German. And I can write fairy tales and short poems in English. My dream is to become a famous writer one day!

	Do you have any hobbies? Do you like to travel? Do you like to learn about the history and traditions of other countries? And how did you spend  your summer?

	Best wishes, 

	Martin
