Subject : introduction

Hi Via. It’s nice to know that you would like to have a pen pal from a foreign country. My name is Laura Smith and I was
born on July, 11th 2001. I come from Perth, Australia. You know Perth, don’t you? It’s quite close to Nusa Tenggara islands,
precisely in the northern part of Australia.
Well, I’m here to participate in the student exchange program and I attend SMA Persada Utama, Denpasar. It is a nice school
and all the people here-the principal, teachers, staff and schoolmates-are very kind and helpful.
I will stay here for about three months. During my stay, I live with a local family, the Affandi family. They are very nice and
friendly people and treat me like one of the family. They help me a lot in adapting to the new culture and environment so I feel
comfortable and welcome living here. I guess I will love this city.

Regards,

Laura Smith
