My treasure

Hello everyone, and happy new year! Yesterday, I had caught a cold. So, I must to go bed all day. I was annoyed with headache and stomachache. It is snow today, you should take care of your health!

Now, I would like to talk about South Africa. When I was a junior high school student, I got a letter from Isibania. Do you know Isibania? This city is a top place of South Africa. And Isibania is in Kenya.

Why did I get this letter? Because I belonged to a seminar of international volunteer group. At there, we sent sporting things and stationery to an Isibania school. Then together with them, we put in letters. I wrote a letter about my school life or my future and so on. Of course, I also wrote questions.

I got a letter! I was happy to get it! Maybe you can't read the context of this letter, so I will write it down on here. There are mistakes in grammar and spelling, but I left them in.
