Dear Bob,
Thanks a lot for your letter. I was really looking forward to getting it. Sorry, I haven't written for so long, as I was busy, preparing for my exams.
I enjoy visiting museums, because I like to find out about something new. It also helps me with my homework. I can go to a museum, learn something new and I can write about this in my homework. Now I enjoy learning history, and I would like to to set up a historical museum in my town. I think, that it would be dedicated to the World War II. In my free time I enjoy watching films, going to museums and reading books.
Sorry, I have to go now, my mom is calling me
Write back soon.
Best wishes,
