Hola Profesora Nunes!
¡Muy emocionada a digo tu las buenas noticias! Receñidamente yo recibo una noticia que yo ir España para un programa de intercambio. Pero, no se a trajo. Pienso que traer muchas ropas para el tiempo calor. Porque oyó a esta no frió mucho aquí. Trajo ropas que los shorts, camisetas, sanadillas, y un bikini para los días quiero nadir. ¿Piensas que traer agua de los estados unidos? Oyó que recibir los parásitos cuando bebo el agua de España. Yo traer agua de mi casa por si acaso. La familia que yo quedarme en casa está muy simpática. Ellos emocionada también a mi llegado. ¡No muy rico, pero esta bien porque tienen un casa grande con un lapicero! Quiero que aprenda mucho a la cultura y el lenguaje. Es un bien oportunidad para mí. Yo llegado, escribir a tu. ¡Adiós!

Sinceramente, Stephanie
