Dear sister in law
I inform you that I received your 2 letters and you will forgive me that I have answered neither because I've been travelling about the whole time and there weren't conditions to write you and I hope you will understand[?] what my situation is but I will be in 14 day in my place again and will be able to write you regularly I still have some cities to travel [the English word is used] but I'm on my way back and will write more details[?]
