dear niko,
tora molis diabasa to gramma sou. My name is Soulafreda, and i
live in Connecticutt. i was so psyched to receive your letter. I have
never met any greeks on line! I don't have AOL, but i can write to you from
the internet. You sound really cool, and i want to keep in touch through
computers.Koukla 5 doesn't know greek, so maybe that is why she didn't
write back, or what ever the case is. I am 17 like i said. I love
listening to greek songs and going to bouzoukia. I love playing volleyball,
and watching basketball. My parents are both from small villages outside of
Sparta. Well i have to go, but write back.
me polla fillia,
Soulafreda
Perimeno to gramma sou...
