Dear Sir,
My name is Li Hua. I'd like take the chance for the Two-week Eco-travel Round Australia. I'm a senior two student of 17 in Xi'an. I have a great many of hobbies, such as music, drawing or playing chess. Especially I'm fond of sports and travel. That's because I'm quite strong and healthy. Australia has long been my dream countries to visit. There're plenty of interesting plants and animals in that magic country, which were what I want to learn personal. The travel will for sure help increase my knowledge of protect the environment and broaden your horizons. It may be very tired, but I still apply for the travel.
Yours,
Li Hua
