Dear Elizabeth,
This trip is awful! There are so many people getting sick and even dying. The only reason I am in this filthy ship is that we are going to get to go to a new world. I even got sick but was quickly cured. I wish you were here with me. My ship is called the Mayflower and it is huge but disgusting. I sleep in a bunk above a snoring man every night and wake up for yet another day of boredom and sitting wondering if we will ever arrive in the new world.
Best Wishes,
Constance
