Hi my xxx!!
I'm very glad that you have written to me. I need your letters more
and more often. They make me happy.
Where are your pictures ?? What a pity you didn't send me any photos!
My mood became a little sad! Do you have any photogravings? Maybe you
can take a photo for me and send it to me. I expect a photo from you
in every letter! I will wait for a photo in the next letter from you!
I do not know as you to answer your question because I never travelled
from Russia earlier and never thought over a trip so far from my
house. Certainly, when I have come to Internet cafe to start to search
to myself of the friend that I thought that once we will need to meet
and he will probably ask me to arrive to it, but I did not think that
it will be so soon. I thought that we need to learn at first each
other as it is possible is better. I know a little about you and I
think you so know about me a little. I think to us it is necessary to
think a little and then to solve and plan more seriously ours with you
I will meet my dear.
Now If you do not object, I would like to tell to you about my family.
My mum had no sisters and brothers. Therefore I've no cousins. To me
it's sometimes very lonely. But I'm glad, that I have Marina and
Natalya. I was determined with work in clinic! I’m the children's
therapist. I shall soon have holidays, I shall work as the senior
therapist. Hope, that you is glad for me because the senior therapist
is my favourite trade.
Today I have been late for work. When I woke up in the morning, my
neighbour came to me. She is an old woman and she is a very good and
king woman. We address each other when we need something. Today she
came to me because she had a problem. The door to her house has been
broken and she couldn’t close it. She lives alone as well, her husband
died 5 years ago and now nobody is ready to help her. So, I went to
have a look at the door. We tried to repair it but we could do
nothing. I am a bad carpenter (smile). As it turned out something was
wrong with a lock, it was necessary to ask a specialist’s help. Nina
(this is my neighbour’s name) was very disappointed, what we could do,
we are women, and it was clear that a specialist’s help was necessary.
I tried to calm down my neighbour because she doesn’t feel well and
it’s very dangerous for her to be nervous. She had to be hospitalized,
but she refused to do it and now she has to take injections every day.
I promised to ask for a carpenter. In our clinic there is a man, who
is responsible for repair, if something is wrong with the clinic. He
drinks alcohol a lot, but he has “golden hands” (in Russia it means
that a person with “golden hands” can do all the things very good) I
want to ask him to help my neighbour with her door. I want, that he
attempt to repair my roof. I do not know whether he will agree. I
shall hope for his help. I can’t find him now but as soon as I see him
I’ll ask. It is very important to help old people. More than it our
government doesn't treat old people well. Pensions are tiny. They
don’t get any social aid. Our medicine is not free of charge. Old
people have to spend all the money on medicines. Of course it is not
good, it’s unfair, unjust. But the economic situation in Russia is not
highly developed. Well I am not interested in politics but the
question about social aid is very important for me .
I do not remember I wrote to you about my diploma? I have the diploma
the Europe-standard. This diploma entitles to work as the doctor in
your country.
Your Valentina
