…I’ve always been into treasure hunts and outdoor exploration. You won’t believe what I’ve been doing lately! I’ve started magnet fishing – you throw a strong magnet tied to a rope into canals and rivers to see what metal stuff you can pull out. So far, I’ve found a rusty street sign, some old coins, and even a pocket watch! What are you into? What do your friends do in their free time? Is there anything unusual you or your friends like doing?
…Oh, and yesterday I pulled out an old metal box, and there was a camera inside it…

Suggested answer
Hi Harry,
Thanks for your email. Your new hobby sounds really exciting!
I’ll be happy to answer your questions. As for me, I’m really keen on photography. I got interested in it a few years ago when I got my first camera as a birthday present. Most of my friends spend their free time playing computer games, watching films, or doing sports. But two of them do have some unusual interests! One of my friends is into fluid art, mixing different paints, and the other enjoys experimental cooking, inventing new recipes.
Anyway, you mentioned finding an old camera. I’m curious! What does it look like? Is it still in good condition? What brand is it?
That’s all for now. Write back soon.
Best wishes,
Pavel
