Dear Tom and Jane,
I’m thrilled to be here in Bucksport, a cosy little town in the state of Maine. The weather is chilly and snowy. Helen and I are staying at our friend George Hurley’s house. The Hurleys are very kind people, and right now, we’re enjoying a hot cup of tea while taking in the fantastic view of the harbour. Mrs Hurley, our friend’s mum, is baking some brownies for us—they’re a favourite treat around here!
Bucksport is a peaceful, coastal town at the end of Penobscot Bay. Visitors love the view of Fort Knox, which stands proudly across the bay. Most people here work in the local paper mill, the International Paper Company, or run their own small businesses. The locals are warm, welcoming, and love to chat. They’re also really into sports! They often go skiing, sailing, and play golf, basketball, or tennis. When they’re not playing sports, they like taking relaxing walks along the mile-long marina.
Bucksport is a unique place to visit, and I feel so happy here. I’m not ready to leave this peaceful spot.
Love,
Nick

The terms “harbour/harbor” and “port” are often used interchangeably, but they have distinct meanings:
Harbour: A harbour is a sheltered area along a coast where ships, boats, and other watercraft can take refuge from rough waters. It may be naturally protected by land formations like bays and inlets or enhanced by man-made structures such as breakwaters. A harbour is mainly about providing a safe space from the open sea and does not necessarily involve facilities for loading and unloading cargo.
Port: A port is a facility within or near a harbour that has infrastructure for handling the arrival and departure of ships. It includes docks, warehouses, cranes, and other equipment needed for loading and unloading goods, as well as passenger terminals. Ports are typically commercial hubs where shipping, trading, and transportation services are provided.
In summary: All ports are harbours (since they’re located in sheltered waters), but not all harbours are ports, as they may lack the commercial infrastructure needed for goods and passengers.

For some people, video games can be one of their favorite pastimes!
Μανώλης
Video games can take up a significant part of some people’s lives, from e-sports experts to regular family members. Some people might enjoy Roblox, while others might prefer Minecraft or FIFA. Some play on mobile devices, while others have their own personal computers. Either way, we can all have fun, connect, and enjoy ourselves together! Even if we don’t meet in the same game due to our different preferences, “there can always be a between, where everyone can be within.” In other words, there is always a space where everyone can belong.
Absolutely! Some people collect stamps; others collect virtual dragons. To each their own!

Dogs love playing with their toys, and they enjoy playing with other dogs and their owners too. They go crazy for bouncing balls and sometimes even like chewing on shoes. Ιt can be a bit annoying, but playing with your dog is so much fun!
Bouncing or Bouncy Balls?
• Bouncing implies that the ball is actively moving up and down.
• Bouncy describes the ball’s nature—it easily bounces when played with.
Among all dogs, Bella the golden retriever is a true enthusiast, bringing her playful spirit to everything she does. She is famous for her fetch skills, catching balls mid-air like a pro. But her true thrill? Sneaking into the Shoe Kingdom—a whimsical place with scents. One day, she found the ultimate prize: a bright red trainer (US: sneaker), perfect for her collection!

The Federal Republic of Germany is made up of 16 federal states, the Länder.
Most of the federal states are fairly large in terms of surface area. However, Berlin, Hamburg and Bremen are classified as city-states, being cities that simultaneously hold federal state status.
Some states call themselves a “free state” (Freistaat). It is merely a historic synonym for “republic” and was a description used by most German states after the abolishment of monarchy after World War I. Today, Freistaat is associated emotionally with a more independent status, especially in Bavaria. However, it has no legal significance.

Bavaria (Bayern) free state

How Creativity Reflects Our Inner Lives
Abstract art on a huge canvas by Fidostudio
Μαρίζα
Art is a unique way for people to express their emotions, thoughts, and ideas. Through various forms—like painting, sculpture, music, and dance—artists share parts of themselves with the world. Art helps people connect with each other and see life from different perspectives. It can be colorful and joyful, dark and mysterious, or calm and serene. Art is also relaxing. Art is more than just a creation; it’s a language that everyone can understand, even without words.
One sunny afternoon, in a small art studio, a group of kids discovered an ancient paintbrush hidden in a dusty corner. When they picked it up, a burst of colour swirled around them, and suddenly, famous artists like Van Gogh, Frida Kahlo, and Picasso materialised!
Excited, the kids begged the artists to teach them. Van Gogh showed them how to create swirling starry skies, Frida shared her vibrant self-portraits, and Picasso introduced them to abstract shapes.
But then, the twist hit: the artists realised they’d forgotten how to paint in the modern world! The kids giggled, and together, they created a chaotic masterpiece that combined their styles—an explosion of colour, laughter, and creativity that left everyone stunned.
The artists learnt that art evolves, and sometimes, it’s the kids who teach the best lessons!

Dogs are very playful animals. They are also wonderful friends. Sometimes they can be quite naughty, but when you are sad, they can easily cheer you up.
🤎🐶🐕😍
Dogs are indeed the clowns of the animal kingdom, always ready to turn your frown upside down. They’re like furry therapists with a penchant for mischief. Just remember, when your dog chews up your favourite shoes, it’s simply their way of saying, “I’m here to brighten your day… one shoe at a time!”
penchant
a liking for, an enjoyment of, or a habit of doing something, especially something that other people might not like

Our house during the day and at night.
Μάρκος και Λίαν
Our house is always full of friends and joy!
We play all sorts of games: basketball, football, board games, and ping pong. Sometimes we argue, but in the end, we always find a way to be friends again!
Your house sounds like the perfect place for a reality show! With all those games and laughter, I can only imagine the chaos that ensues. I can just picture it now: basketball tournaments where the referee is a stuffed bear, intense football matches with pillows as goalposts, and board games that turn into epic debates about who really follows the rules.
If you ever need a guest star for your ping pong championship, you know where to find me!

He doesn’t need wings to fly—he just waddles so fast that everyone thinks he’s zooming. Also, don’t be fooled by his huge beak, he’s secretly a master ice sculptor. One day, he made an entire castle out of ice cubes and then… he ate it!

One sunny morning, a rainbow appeared in the sky, and I knew it was going to be the best day ever! The colours were so bright, it felt like they were calling me to come closer. So, I ran and ran, hoping I could catch it.
Suddenly, I tripped over a rock and tumbled down a hill, landing right in a puddle. I was soaked! But when I looked up, the rainbow wasn’t in the sky anymore—it was stuck on my clothes! I laughed so hard that I almost forgot I was covered in mud.
Now, I walk around in rainbow-coloured trousers and everyone asks, “Where did you get those?” I just smile and say, “I got a little too close to a rainbow!”

Cristiano Ronaldo is better than Léo Messi.
CR7 is the GOAT! 🐐
That’s a great point! I agree with you—Cristiano Ronaldo is an amazing player, and many people think he’s the best. His hard work, skill, and achievements are really impressive. It’s fantastic that you know so much about football!
This phrase reflects a common debate in football regarding which of the two players is superior. Both are considered among the greatest players of all time, but fans and analysts argue about which one is “better” based on factors like skill, achievements, goals, style of play, and personal preference.
“CR7 is the GOAT” means that Cristiano Ronaldo (who is often referred to as CR7 because of his initials and jersey number) is regarded as the “Greatest Of All Time” (GOAT), a term used to describe someone at the pinnacle of their sport.
Of course, we should keep in mind that this comparison is highly subjective and depends on the criteria that each person values most in a footballer.
