Hi there,
How are you? Thanks for your last e-mail. You want to know how I get to school, right? Well, I usually leave my home at about 8:00 and walk to the bus stop. The school bus usually comes at about 8:15. My school is about 20 kilometers from my home. It takes about 40 minutes to get there by bus. The bus ride is never boring because I always talk to my classmates.
