How are you? I'm writing from Atacames! I'm on a family trip here and I'm having a great time.

So far, we've done a lot. We went to the beach. We saw a lot of birds and some fish that were surfing around. We spent a good while on the beach and then went to eat at a restaurant. The food was delicious.

Tomorrow, we're going to another beach near Atacames and see what new things there are, and then we'll go back to the hotel.

I hope you're having a great summer too. Write me when you can and tell me everything you did.

bye for now.

¡I hope you’re doing great! I'm writing to you from Baños de Agua Santa, Ecuador, where I'm having an amazing vacation with my family. This place is absolutely magical!

So far, we've done so many exciting things. We visited the waterfalls along the Ruta de las Cascadas, and the most impressive one was El Pailón del Diablo—the sound of the crashing water is so loud it feels like thunder! We also braved the "swings at the end of the world", and the views of the Tungurahua volcano are breathtaking.

Yesterday, we tried the local melcochas (a traditional candy) and relaxed in the hot springs. The warm water was perfect after a long day of exploring! Tomorrow, we're planning to go rafting on the Pastaza River and then head up to the Virgen viewpoint to see the city lit up at night.

¡I hope you’re having an awesome summer too! Let me know what you've been up to.

Best wishes,
Revelo

How are you? I'm writing from the Galapagos!

I'm on a family trip to explore all the islands. I'm having a great time!

So far, we've visited many places. We've gone whale watching. The seals are so cute and sleep a lot! We also snorkeled and saw lots of sea turtles. There's a lookout point where you can see all the islands and the planes flying by! It's great!

Tomorrow we're going to San Cristóbal Island, where we'll visit a historical museum. I'm really looking forward to fishing from the boats!

I hope you have a great vacation too.

Write to me and tell me about your adventures.

Goodbye for now.

Jean Pierre

How are you? I hope everything’s going great! I wanted to tell you about my trip to Ecuador— I’m here with my family and we’re having an awesome time.

A few days ago, we visited a place called Baños de Agua Santa, a small town surrounded by mountains, waterfalls, and hot springs. It’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever seen! We went to the Pailón del Diablo, a huge waterfall with a really powerful flow of water. We had to walk through hanging bridges and down a steep path to get there, but it was totally worth it.

We also went to La Casa del Árbol, where there’s a famous swing called the “Swing at the End of the World.” I was a little scared, but I tried it anyway and it felt like flying! The view of the mountains was incredible.

In the evening, we relaxed in the hot springs and ate local food like empanadas, yaguarlocro, and mote con chicharrón. Everything was delicious!

Ecuador is full of nature, adventure, and great food. I think you’d love it here. Let me know what you’ve been up to lately.

Bye fot now,
Isaac

How are you? Is everything okay there?

You can't imagine the trip I had and the things I went through. I was in the Galapagos. We had a lot of complications on the way here, but nothing that can't be resolved, right? When we arrived, we did a lot of things, like swimming in the ocean at the beach, seeing the animals there, which are really cute, and I stayed in a pretty nice hotel. But my brother liked it more than I did because he loved the view, which I liked too. I'll write to you as soon as possible to keep you updated on what I'm going to do during my time here.

Talk to you later!

Valentina

How are you? I´m writing to you from the Galapagos Islands!

We´ve already done some amazing things. We´ve gone snorkeling and seen sea lions and colorful fish. We also visited the Charles Darwin Research Station, it was super interesting!

I hope you are doing well! It's been a long time since we last talked, and I wanted to know how everything is going in your life.

How are you?

I´m writing this email from Baños. I´m here on a family trip and I´m having an amazing time! The weather is warm and sunny during the day, and the views of the mountains are incredible.

So far we´ve done so many fun things. We´ve visited the famous "Puente de Cristal". It was a bit scary but so cool! Yesterday we hiked to the Pailon del Diablo waterfall. It´s huge and very powerful. We´ve also eaten some delicious food, like hornado and tigrillo.

Tomorrow we´re going to go canoping across a large ravine. I´m a little nervous, but I am really looking forward to it. After that we´re off to visit the Manos de la Pachamama again to take more photos. In the evening we´ll probably relax at the hotel and play some games.

Hope you´re having a fun vacation too! Write and tell me your news.

Bye for now,

Subject: Today’s training

Hi, Jorge,

How are you? I’m writing this e-mail in Quito, Ecuador. The weather is great, it’s a sunny day. I’ve trained in the park, I started by training with the warm up the first 10 minutes. After that, I drank water and played in pairs with my best friend. Then, the spikes started and they’re cool, I like the spikes in volleyball because you have to use your strength. When the spikes finished, my team and I go to pass the balls with my teacher. This is my routine in the volleyball stadium. After that, I go to the gym with my team, I really like the gym because it helps me to be stronger.

My teacher told me about what we are doing tomorrow, he told me we are going to start with warm up and next, we are only going to do gym for the next 2 hours. Tomorrow we are going to do: legs and arms. I think it’s so stressing because my muscles worked yesterday.

Hope you’re having a good day.

Bye for now! See you tomorrow!

Thank you so much for your email! I'm writing from Quito, Ecuador. It's been raining so much! But despite the weather, we're very happy. On Saturday, we went to the Middle of the World and saw its great monument. I had a lot of fun. We also went to eat a delicious fritada with chicha.

Tomorrow, we're going to visit the historic center to see its colonial churches, museums, plazas, and historic buildings. Write to me and tell me how it goes.

See you soon.

Best regards!

How are you doing? I'm writing to you from Baños! I'm here on a family vacation and it's been amazing so far.

Yesterday, we visited the waterfalls and even went on a cable car ride across the river—it was so exciting! Later, we tried some local sweets and walked around the town square.

Today, we're planning to go hiking in the mountains. The weather is perfect, and the views are beautiful. I'm taking lots of pictures to show you later.

I hope you're enjoying your break too. Write me back and let me know what you’ve been up to!

Take care,

What’s up? It’s Martín writing to you from Ecuador. I just wanted to say hi and see how you’re doing. It’s been a while since we talked, so I thought I’d send you a quick message.

Things here are pretty good! The weather’s been nice, and I’ve been hanging out with friends, playing games, and just trying to enjoy school (well, kinda 😅). Ecuador is cool—there’s always something interesting going on, and the food is soooo good. You’d love it here!

How are things with you? Still doing your thing? Let me know what you’ve been up to—any cool stuff happening over there?

Anyway, hope to hear from you soon. Miss talking with you!

Later!
Martín

During our stay, we’ll visit the historic center of Quito, which is full of beautiful colonial buildings and churches. One of the highlights will be La Mitad del Mundo, where we can stand on the equator and take some great photos. We’re also planning to ride the TelefériQo cable car for amazing views of the city from the top of the mountains.

On Saturday, we’ll have time to explore local markets, try Ecuadorian food like empanadas and locro de papa, and maybe even visit a museum or two. Don’t forget to bring comfortable walking shoes, a light jacket, and your camera!

Let me know if you have any questions.
Looking forward to an amazing trip with you all!

Best,
Martin

I'm in Cuenca and I'm having a great time. The city is beautiful, with cobblestone streets and a special charm. I visited the historic center and a colorful local market. I even tried some traditional dishes They were delicious!

I still want to go up to the viewpoint to see the whole city and visit a couple of museums. Cuenca has a calm kind of magic that I really love.

I’ll tell you more when I get back.

Big hug my friend,

Hellen♡

We’ve gone to the beach every day — the waves are huge and we even tried surfing! I fell like three times but it was so funny . At night there’s music and lights everywhere, and we danced a lot. The food here is sooo good too, I tried ceviche and it was delicious!

Tomorrow we’re going to take a boat tour to see dolphins! I’m really excited, I’ve never seen them that close before.

Hope you’re enjoying your break too. Write back and tell me what you’re doing!

I miss you more than I ever thought it was possible to miss someone. Your voice, your hugs, your "I love you"s that always made me feel at home… I miss all of that so much.
Sometimes I find myself thinking about you without even realizing it, and how just your presence made everything feel more beautiful, more peaceful, more joyful.

I know distance isn’t easy, but I also know that what we have is strong. What I feel for you doesn’t fade with the distance — if anything, it grows every single day.
Thank you for being my safe place, for loving me the way you do, for being there for me even when we’re not physically together.

I close my eyes and picture that hug I need so badly, and even though it’s not the same, it still makes me smile.
I love you with all my heart, and I’m hoping with everything in me for the moment I get to see you again and tell you all of this in person.

With all my love,
Jhosenyn

How are you? I hope you’re doing great! I wanted to tell you a bit about my weekend, it was super fun and full of things to do.

On Saturday morning, I had my French class. It was actually really cool! We learned some new vocabulary and practiced speaking. I think I’m getting better little by little. After that, in the afternoon, I went to the club to play padel. I love it! It’s such a fun sport, and I always have a good time, even if I get tired.

Once we finished playing, I stayed at the club and went to the pool to relax a bit. The water was perfect! I also had some breakfast there nothing fancy, but it was delicious.

Later, I spent time with my family and we played football together. It’s kind of a tradition now, and we always end up laughing a lot. At night, we stayed home and played card games. It was a really nice moment to disconnect and enjoy each other’s company. We hadn’t done that in a while, so it felt really good.

Anyway, that was pretty much my Saturday. I’d love to hear about your weekend too! Write me when you can :)

Take care and talk soon,

Belen

How are you? I'm having such a great time here in Brazil! It's a beautiful country with so many exciting things to do.

So far, I’ve visited the Christ the Redeemer statue in Rio de Janeiro, and I spent a day relaxing on Copacabana Beach. I also went to the Sugarloaf Mountain — the view from the top was incredible!

There are still some things I haven’t done yet. I really want to explore the Amazon rainforest and try some traditional Brazilian food like feijoada. I’m also planning to visit Iguaçu Falls before I leave!

Can’t wait to tell you more when I get back. Talk soon!

Take care,
Gabriel
