Dear Hoa,
Hi! How are you? I’m fine. Thanks for your letter. I
like hearing about how students live in Viet Nam. I find
it really interesting.
I think you have fewer vacations than American
students. Is that true? Our longest vacation is in the
summer. Do you have a long summer vacation, too?
We don’t have a Tet holiday, but we celebrate the
New Year on January 1
st
. Our most important
vacations are Easter, 4th of July, Thanks giving and
Christmas. We usually spend time with our families on
these vacations.

What other vacations do you have? What do you
like doing during your vacations? Please write soon
and tell me.
Your friend,
Tim
