Good evening, my friend. I can’t say I have many true friends, just a few. What about you? Do you have many true friends?
Ok, let me follow your last letter. When I was younger I used to live in a large seaport in the west of Russia. It’s Kaliningrad on the Baltic Sea. The city is very nice and cozy. I sometimes like to return there. It’s a pity the city is far from my town. Kaliningrad was full of seamen and every girl’s dream was to marry off a seaman. It seemed so romantic! I wasn’t an exemption of course. I haven’t married a seaman. My father–in-law was a seaman and usually drunk. It didn’t make the family happy. Most of Russian seamen are like him. That’s why I was glad to know from you that English seamen are different. That’s very good!
VOCABULARY
a few- несколько
follow - следовать
I used to live – я раньше жила
It’s a pity. – Жаль.
exemption – исключение
I do not drink and that's true. I can say the very words you say about spirits and wine. I don't understand their tastes. So I completely agree with you!
As about the dating site. Yes, some men are there just to spend their free time playing with women's feelings. I've met some of them. They wrote during a month and then..... they escaped from the site.
I don't have WhatsApp because my mobile phone has no Internet. But I do have Skype on my computer at home. So it would be nice to talk to you online when you are at home.
VOCABULARY
the very words- те же самые слова
father–in-law- свёкор
like him - как он

I like to travel as well but can't allow it to myself very often. I have long holiday in summer when pupils have their summer holidays 3 months long. I've never been to Spain or Portugal. But I have been to England and Ireland many years ago. It is unforgettable! I really enjoyed the trips!
See you. До следующего письма, мой читатель.
