E-mailed to Ilsemarie, my friend in Germany

  I sent an e-mail to my friend in Germany. Her name is Ilsemarie, and she is a journalist who writes essays on travels. I have been exchanging e-mails for many years, and I visited her in Germany three years ago. She lives in a city in northern part of Germany, close to Hanover, with her husband and one of her two sons. She has another son, and a daughter who works in former East Germany.
  In the morning, I arranged some materials concerning writing my personal history. I checked my travel itineraries because I wanted to know when and where I have traveled so far. I have been to Austria, Germany,Thailand, Italy, Norway, Sweden, Denmark, Spain, Australia, New Zealand, USA, Singapore, United Kingdom, Malaysia, and the Netherland. As for the domestic travel, I have traveled almost all parts of Japan. When I travel, I go with my wife, but when I went to UK, I was alone, because my wife was busy caring for her mother living with us. And in some travels above, I went with my wife's sister and her husband, who was a professor of a national university.
