Writing task

0 I am a student of English translation in Austria. I wanted to ask you if someone could correct one of my tasks or tell me what I could do better. Here it is: 02br
02br
00I am writing you from a wonderful place called „Labudala“. You will surly ask yourself why I left Bangkok where we wanted to meet next week. Well, that’s a weird story but I will try to explain it. 02br
00After 6 days in Bangkok I went to a restaurant where you’d usually met natives only. I really didn’t expect to see any tourists in there because most of them would be scared of this kind of restaurant. However, while I was eating I saw an attractive but pretty dirty and exhausted looking young woman who tried to get something to eat for free. She tried everything to persuade the owner of the restaurant but it didn’t look like it was going to work. So I decided to help her out because it appeared as if she was in real trouble. 02br
00Then this kind of weird but wonderful odyssey started. She turned out to be a backpacker from the US and she really was in deep water. All her money had been stolen 2 days ago in the elevated train and she was already desperate when I met her. On top of that, she didn’t have a place to sleep either because she just wanted to pass through Bangkok and catch the plane to Labudala. This, however, wasn’t possible because after her money had been stolen she didn’t know how to pay for the ticket. Actually, she didn’t even know who to afford something to eat. 02br
00So I decided to pay the ticket and as I was kind of spell bound by her blue sparkling eyes and her long blond hair - even if she looked pretty shabby - I went with her. 02br
00It was also very fascinating how she described this little island in the south of Thailand. When she spoke of it she was all smiles and now I understand why. 02br
00Here are just a few fishing villages and virtually no tourists at all. We sleep in a small thatched hut directly on the beach. It’s just indescribably beautiful. There is a little lake with a tiny waterfall just a 15 minute walk away where we can have a wash and tropical rainforest is all around us. You can pick every fruit you can imagine just behind our little hut. And if we need anything else we take the boat and drive to the next village. It’s so wonderful 02br
00Please come and join us here. I will send you a description how to come to this tremendously gorgeous place. I would really be in a quandary if you didn’t want to come. 0-
