Dear Ms Ngô Phương Lan, I am Lê Ngọc Diệp, a year 9 student. I am writing for further information about the volunteer tourism programme organised by ABC Travel Group advertised on your website last week. This programme really interests me because I love gaining experience from tourism experts. I plan to study tourism at university so that I can become a tour guide, so it would be rewarding to have hands-on experience. I was born with skills for problem solving and teamwork, which meets the requirements for a tour guide. Moreover, last summer's volunteer tourism programme gave me precious experiences on travelling software development. I would be grateful if you could send me further information about the volunteer programme. I am about to take exams, but I will be available from 12th July. I look forward to hearing from you.
