Oh sorry
Well who are you writing to?
put in it a medium sized envelope (the SASE which you fold up to put in your fan letter envelope)

Put maybe 2/3 for a large letter and include some more in the letter to cover extra costs

you can use 1st class stamps as long as its the correct postage cost and labelled 'airmail'
as for 30/40g medium letter cost,
i sent a letter to germany from uk (40g) and that cost me £1.69
