Hi Simon,

    I haven't written till now. I've been busy with the course and making new friends I got here. I'm speaking English with my classmates all the time and going out in the evenings with （they）. We're a real mix of nationalities Chinese, Russian, Italian, Spanish... We talk about kinds of thing English and I'm learning a lot about other languages and countries, too.

    My host family are very nice. The parents are very （friend） and kind. The children are both in primary school they are very sweet. But they can be a bit annoying（恼人的） too. If we have to watch the film Frozen together one more time, I'm going crazy! I know all the （song） by heart now!

    We live near the school. It's a short bus ride from Edinburgh city centre. There is ancient castle（城堡） and we're going there next week. Yesterday my Italian friend invited me（watch） the free street shows. We （see） magician doing card games-it was so much fun!

    I  (send)  you some photos of Edinburgh Castle next time. Take care and let me know how you are doing.
