Dear Caroline,

It was lovely getting your letter two days ago. Thank you so much for it. You do seem to have had a good time on your holiday. I wish that I could have been with you. 1 was also very interested in what you have told me about your life and work in London.

I have also been on holiday. I was able to join some friends on a tour to the Philippines and we had a very good time there. We spent a few days in Manila, which is the capital, and then went to Baguio, a country town in the hills to the north of Manila. 1 usually save up as much money as 1 can in order to go away on holidays because Hong Kong is very hot and sticky during the summer. I plan to go to Thailand next year and 1 hope that one day 1 will be able to save enough money to go to Europe.

Now I restart my work and am very busy in the office. My boss is an American and although he is kind, he always gives me a lot of work to do. I have been working for my boss since 2007 and I am very happy with my job. I am very happy that we have been pen pals for nearly two years, do please write again soon and 1 will also do so very soon.

With love,

Lydia
