Nam is our new classmate. He comes from Nha Trang. His family still lives there. Now, he is living with his aunt and uncle in Ho Chi Minh City. It is about 3 kilometers from his aunts house to his school but it is 12 kilometers from his house to his old school in Nha Trang. So, he often cycles to school every moming. His aunt's house ¡is much larger than his house ¡in Nha Trang, so he has one room for his own. Nam is a good and hard working boy. He usually helps his aunt and uncle with the housework. They are both doctors in a big hospital in Ho Chi Minh City. They often go to work from early morning to late evening. They rarely go home to have lunch. They have lunch at the hospital. They have a daughter and a son. They are married and live in their own house. Nam feels happy here because his aunt and uncle take care of him. He also has some new friends. His parents and his old friends in NhaTrang write to him so often. He writes to them so often, too. This encourages him a lot when he lives far from his beloved parents and friends.
