Hi Finn,

            How are you? Here I am in Australia! I arrived here last Friday with a group of friends. The flight was really funny and entertaining, we watched a movie, we ate a lot and slept, too. Then, we got a train here to get to the school.

 Juilliard School is amazing! It's a little difficult, but I have learned a lot! In our first music class, my friend Laura and I sang a song from the Beatles, she sang and I played the guitar. We didn't sound very good, but our teacher, Bywater, gave us some tips to make it better,so next week we have a presentation and we must be prepared! There are excellent teachers, they teach very well and we are learning a lot, however, there are some of them that are boring. For example, our singing teacher, Mr. Benson. He tells us much about his past as a singer in a rock band, it sounds funny, but it's not, it's very boring.

 I am sharing a room with a girl from Scotland, she sings great and she dances very well! Her name is Jasmin, and Sam, my other friend, plays the piano and the drums really well, he told me he wants to be in a band like Benson.

  Well, I have to go to practice for the presentation.

  Kisses!
