Hi Mike,

I’ve got so much to tell you. Things are different for me now. Last September we moved to Canada. Before we had lived in France for 6 months. We’re here for a year.

James changed a lot of jobs. He was working in a shop, for an IT company, but now he is working for a bank in Vancouver and I’m studying at the film school. We’re staying in a lovely flat in the centre of the town. There are a lot of things to do in the city, but every weekend we go the countryside. It’s really beautiful!

Last summer we couldn’t have a rest, but next summer we’re going to visit my parents and to have a trip around Europe.

What about you? I’d love to know what you’re doing these days. Send me an e-mail soon.

Love, Gaby xxx
