Dear Sveta,,
...I get it yesterday.
...How's your new job? I tried to get through to you on Thursday, but the line was always busy. I hope you're getting through your first weeks all right.
I've already been in Germany for three weeks. It's very quiet here. There are very few people in the streets only cars.
It's getting colder and colder every day. There's no snow in the streets in winter here and I'm missing our snowy Russian winter.
The people here are getting ready for Christmas. They decorate all the windows in their houses with angels, Christmas trees and lamps, and when it gets dark, it looks like a fairy tale. Some people like to get away for Christmas. They go to the mountains or visit their relatives, but my friends are going to stay at home.
Last week I got a cold and felt very bad. I'm just getting over it and I'm feeling better now.
When I get back, I'll tell you more.
...I have to do the cooking tonight.
Best wishes, Vera
