Dear Josh,
I am spending a week in London. I’ve never
seen a place that this city. It is fantastic! I’ve
seen amazing buildings since I came here.
Yesterday, I went to a famous museum, I
didn’t take photos because some one stole
my bag. Luckily, I didn’t have much money
in it.
Besides that bad moment, I really enjoy
spend my time here; as you know I like tea
but I haven’t ever drunk black tea, so
yesterday I did it and it was delicious!
I miss you a lot, I hope to see you soon.Bye for now
Caro

Dear Vero, As you know, I’ve been waiting for this trip for two years, but I’m finally here. People are very kind, they have been helping me all the time. Lately, I have been working very hard in my project because my boss wants it immediately; however, I’ve been having fun in my free time. My boyfriend has been calling me up all the mornings, he says that he misses me. Can you believe that? Anyway, I hope to see you soon!
Take careCaro
