Hi _________
I was browsing at ' Penpals Plus' and when I searched through the entries
I found yours, I thought that you seemed interesting so I decided to write.
Let me tell you a little bit about me, my name is Maria and I am a
girl aged 16. I live in Florence, Italy.
The things I like most doing are playing Netball, writing to friends all
round the world and listening to the Spice Girls.
What about you? what do you like to do in your spare time?
I really hope that you will decide to write to me and share some of your
thoughts and tell me some more about your life.
I am sure we can be friends.
Please write back soon, your new friend, Maria.
