There is no snowfall in Sri Lanka. However, I have heard that sometimes snowfall in the town called Nuwara Eliya in Sri Lanka.

One day, when I finished my training sessions, I started to read a newspaper. It is quite hard to read a newspaper with my buddies. That day they all received at least one letter from their families. My mum did not send me a letter that day. Hence I read that newspaper. My friends had always talked about the dating corner of the paper. On that day, I just checked that corner of the newspaper. …

If you want to take a picture like this one, you should go into a dense jungle. But I took this picture from standing in a little forest which is near to a small town in Estonia. Here that adorable small town.

Some time ago, Mr. Peter lost his job. As a result of increased illness, which had occurred a little while ago. For this reason, Mrs. Peter had to bear all the expenses of the family. Mrs. Peter is a journalist with the local newspaper. However, after selling their home, they moved to a new home that is smaller than their former home.
