Dear Sir or Madam, I am writing to lodge a formal request for one of your voluntary positions in the Darwin's Museum. I saw your advertisement in a local newspaper yesterday and want to become a part of your team. I have been writing a book about Russian history for the
last
two years, and I would like to explore your collection of old Viking weapons and Russian dancing dresses dating back to the 13th century. In return, I could offer some voluntary help for your
further
exhibitions. My skills are believed would be rather helpful for your Egyptian parts of the museum.
In addition
, I have C1 level in Spanish and French, and
due to
the fact, that I have been working with kids over the past decade, I could be a tour guide for little kids groups. My wife is in Mali right now, helping to research a new strain of COVID-19 virus, so, I have plenty of time on Sundays and can carry out my duties from 9 a.m. to 7 p.m. I look forward to hearing from you. Yours faithfully, Vasilii Rasskazov
