Dear Franklin

Hello, I wanted to tell you a little about my life.

I tell you that I feel very well. Because I am living with my wife in the city of Quito 3 years ago.

In this time I have shared good and bad moments with Maricela. I tell you that I am living in a
very safe place because in front of my house is the police station.

For the time being I am studying at the Salesian Polytechnic University but on weekends, under
our canton, to work on my car.

Waiting for you to feel good, I say goodbye.

Fabricio
