Dear Patrick,
Thank you for your message. I'm sorry for not writing you for so long. I spent my time doing a school project.
It's great that you talked about the events in the history of your country that you can be proud of. As for me, I'm really proud of the first space flight. Yuri Gagarin was launched into orbit by a Vostok rocket and became the first man in space. I firmly believe, he was the person best represented the values of my country. By the way, I consider is it important to know the history of your country as it makes you feel your cultural identity.
Anyway, I'm glad to hear that you always help your local environment protection organizations. How many organizations are there? Are they private or state? How many people work there?
Looking forward to your answer.
Best wishes,
Kate
