Mr. Joe Noonan

579 7th Ave S.W.

Dear Grandpa Joe,
Hi from Peru! I’m here with my friend Wendy to see Machu Picchu. It's
a very old, very beautiful place in the mountains. You can take a train there, but
we are walking. It takes three days. The views are great.
We are having a lot of fun, but it's hard work! We are very tired in the
evening. We go to bed at 8:00 p.m.! We are staying in a tent. Our guides are
carrying our bags and making our meals. They are very nice. They're teaching us
words in Spanish and in Quechua - that's another language here.
See you soon!
Love,
Lucy

Subject: Hi from Dubai

 Hi all,
I'm here in Dubai! I'm staying in a five-star hotel. It's very nice, but
very expensive. I'm glad my company is paying for the room!

I'm meeting great people. They are very nice to guests here.
They always give you coffee or tea. Everyone speaks English very well.
That's good because I can't read the signs!
It is very hot - over 35 degrees today - and I'm wearing a suit. That isn't
comfortable. But you can also ski here! A big mall has an indoor ski
area with real snow.
I'm really enjoying my trip. The only bad thing is the jet lag. I go to bed
at 1:00 a.m., then I get up at 5:00 a.m.!
See you all next week!
Best,
Peter

 A. Read the text and answer the questions.

After a few days in Hanoi, I moved to my host family's house. They were a young husband and
wife and their three-year-old son. At our first dinner, I was nervous because my Vietnamese was
terrible and their English wasn't great. But it was fun. We laughed a lot. My host mother cooked a
delicious meal.

I studied Vietnamese every morning, and I usually traveled to school by motorcycle taxi. At first,
the traffic was terrifying. But after a few days, I loved it. After a few months, my Vietnamese was
good. My Vietnamese friends helped me a lot! I also talked to people on the street. I visited a lot of
beautiful places in Vietnam, but my favorite thing was the Vietnamese people. They're nice and
friendly, and family is very important to them.

I sometimes missed my family in the US. I also missed pizza! There were a few pizza restaurants
in Hanoi, but they weren't the same. I loved my host family. I'm in the US now and I miss them a
lot. I want to go back to Hanoi this summer!

● How did the author feel the first time in the host family’s house?
