Hi Jane,

How are you? I’m really excited because there’s a school trip this weekend. This year all students in the class get good marks, so we have a visit to a different city as a present. 

The trip is to Hanoi, the capital of Vietnam. It’s a big and modern city with many people living and working there. In the centre, there are many historical buildings, big shopping centres, and famous places. 

People say that street food here is so delicious and cheap. We make a list of popular street food here to try. The most beautiful season in Hanoi is autumn. The weather is cool and we can walk around the West lake to enjoy it.

Email me or message me soon.

Bye for now!

Tom
