Homework

Dear Alexander,

I want to tell you that I am staying in Portugal right now because I got a great job over here. I have big problems with the national language. As you know they speak Portuguese. But once a week I visit a language course. I have been staying here for five weeks. I am fine and I get used to the Portuguese kind of life. I can say I like Portugal . I have rented beautiful flat with a colleague of mine. There is also a little garden, so I can sometimes play football. In my free time I like doing sports or I meet friends. We often go to the cinema or we drive to the sea to go swimming. The distance from our flat to the sea is not very big.  It takes us about 10 minutes to go there by car. I got to know my friends in a disco, they are very nice and I like them a lot. So I spend much time with them and we have a lot of fun together. I am a shop-assistant in a big store where you get just sport things. I am the manager in the football area. Which is a rather responsible job. From time to time you can see famous football players in our store. Once they invited me to a game of their clubs. I really like to live in Portugal, but I sometimes miss my old friends. Maybe I will visit you next year. I hope the weather will be as fine as in Portugal .
I hope to hear from you soon.    
Yours, Balthasar
