Hi,
My name is Stefano and I'm Italia student. I am coming from Rome which I am thinking is the most beautiful city in the world. At the moment I studying Engineering at university in Pisa, so I am living in a flat with three other students. We have a lot in common and are sharing the same sense of humour. Most nights we listen music, and on Saturdays we usually go to a disco and dance all night. All except Marco, who is studying Chemistry. He is very boring and is never going out. This year I am study English twice a week because I would really like to work for an American company when I am finish my degree.
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
All the best,
Stefano

Dear Susan and Nick,
We collected Stavros's ticket yesterday so I'm writing to give you his travel details.
He leaves Athens on December 13 on Flight OM 194 and arrives in Melbourne the next day at 11. 20 in the morning. The airline says there are sometimes delays so it's worth phoning them at the airport to check the flight is on time.
I've enclosed a recent photograph, but just in case you have problems recognising him, he's quite tall for his years with a straight light brown hair and green eyes. He’ll be wearing a light grey T-shirt, jeans and black trainers.
Is there anything you would like him to bring from Greece? The honey is delicious, you know it, and so are the olives.
I ask you to tell us what would you like.
I think, that's all for the moment.
All the best,
Giorgos
