[Assam] visiting Vancouver: World' best city to live in

[umesh sharma]

Mukul-da,

Thank you for the advice. It is wonderful to be among
friends - be it i person or over the net. I hope to
devote sometime to revise my high school math by going
to public libraries -since I have to teach the subject
when iget back. 

The weather is pretty chilly even now.

Best Wishes.

Umesh

Thanks Umesh for the vivid description of Vancouver.

Wish you a pleasent stay. I am sure you will be
helpful to your hosts and they will like you for that.

Please develope a Canada Diary and meticulously fill
details with pictures, leaflets, newspaper cuttings  -
every day of your stay there. When you feel bored you
can visit the many Public libraries.

And never suffer from self-pity.Actually be thankful
that you are doing very well - and preparing to make
the world happier.

Enjoy!
