Subject: My neighbourhood 

Dear Phong, I'm sorry I couldn't write to you earlier because I was very busy. Now, we're staying in a small hotel near a shopping area in District 10. Near my hotel, there's a cinema, a post office, a supermarket and some cafés. There are some big shops at the end of the street. It's also very noisy here because there's always a lot of traffic, day and night. In my home town, I live in a quieter street. There are some small shops, a school and a post office in my neighbourhood but there isn't a park or a cinema. The streets are narrower but they are cleaner and there isn't so much traffic. The air is much fresher, too. Love, Nam.
