To Marilda and Karina,

Hello, Marilda and Karina.

I'm married and I have three kids. I'm a medical doctor (a surgeon).The main attractions for tourists in my country are the beaches and historical sites. The principal beaches are, for example, at Cancún, Acapulco, Puerto Vallarta, and Mazatlán. The historical sites include the pyramids at Teotihuacán (made by the Aztecs) and the monuments at Chichén Itzá, Uxmal, and Tulum (made by the Mayas). There are also sacred cenotes (natural holes in the jungle that were holy places for ancient Mexican people). All of these are principal attractions in my country.

My hobbies: I enjoy classical music, walking every day in the afternoon, good literature, hunting, and fishing.See you next time!

Dr. Martínez and family

P.S. I should tell you that I not too long ago, I was in Manaus and Belém helping the Indians (the Bora-bora and the Jivaros, too). The next time I write, I'll tell something about the story of my trip to Brazil.

Hello, Jesús Martinez.

I'm so happy to talk to you.

I'm very surprised that you know Brazil (Belém and Manaus). I think you had a nice trip with the Indians.

Me, I live in Brasília, the capital of Brazil. Brasília is only 44 years old. Have you heard anything about my city? When do you intend to return to my country?

In what hospital do you work? I guess do you have a nice job. I'm a public lawyer here. I love my job, but sometimes it's stressing.

Sorry, I'm studying English and I have some mistakes. I love to learn English. I study French, too.

As you, I like classical music, too and I love walking in the park.

Can you tell me about your hunting and fishing? And about what literature do you prefer?

In this month, me and my family we are very sad because my mother-in-law died on the last April 10.

See you later.

Marilda

Hello, Marilda and Karina.

I'm glad to see your answers.

My country is divided into five regions also: the North (Northeast, Northwest), the Center, and the South (Southeast, Southwest). In the northern region, it is too hot in the summer, but we have beautiful cities there. The central region is where I'm from. This region is beautiful because it is not hot and it is not cold. All the seasons are nice. In the southern part, we have beautiful places because everything is green all the time. My town is small, but in it, you can see people from all over the world, especially Canadians and Americans. The weather is nice because we have a lake.

Next time, I will send you some pictures.
