Hello Cindy!
I hope you're doing well. I'm sorry for not calling you for a while. Recently, I have been really busy. Soon school will start, and I need to find some presents for my friends that I haven't seen all summer. You always seem to find the best presents and souvenirs for me and our friends. To be honest, I've been trying to find out how you do it! But in any case, today I'm asking you for help. What places do you usually go to do shopping? Please recommend me some malls or shops. Also, please give me the names of the stores where you can buy souvenirs, thank you!
Love, Anastasia.
