Hi Kylie,
How are you? I'm having fun here and I'm learning lots of English. Of course I am! There are so many places to visit and things to do. Sydney is a really nice city and the people are great. On Saturday we went inside the opera house. It was amazing, but much smaller than I imagined! Tomorrow we have a visit to the art museum. My English course is very intensive! I don't have much free time because we do six hours of class every day and we have homework every night. The other students on the course are nice, but I miss my friends, and you, of course! 
The weather here isn't very good. It's raining right now. Everyone says that the food here is great, but actually I miss food from home. My time here is going really quickly. I only have three more weeks before I come home. Write and tell me what everyone is doing. See you soon.
Love,
Juanita
