Dear Mom and Dad,
 Hello from Toronto! After two months of living here, I feel this place is like my house. Toronto is a big city, but it is very nice. I like to shop downtown in the Eaton center, and I also like to shop in the Queen Street store. I enjoy taking the subway to work. It is a bit crowded in the morning, but I don’t mind using the subway because it is so convenient. The trip from my apartment to work takes only twenty minutes.
 Although I like Toronto, my apartment is not very nice. I hate living in this neighborhood. It is not very pleasant and there are no good restaurants. The worst thing is my neighbor. I can’t stand him. He is always playing the stereo all night long.
 Anyway, I enjoy big city life most of the time. I hope you are both well.
 Love,
 Mariam.
