1. I Have Given My Heart to St.Petersburg
People say there is a big difference in perception of the same place when you live there and when you travel. Most visitors 2. are enchanted by St. Petersburg. What about day-to-day life in the 3. City? My answer is longer I live in St. Petersburg deeper I 4. fall in love with my City.
5. Every pebble of St Petersburg has its soul: architecture and plans of palaces and small streets, comfortable and old-fashioned cafes, people, festivals, walks along the Neva river and even grey days of winter and autumn…
Come and feel the spirit of my St. Petersburg.
Dear Alexandra,
Very emotional writing! I have noted some hints for you:
1. I am not sure whether I have modified your title correctly with your thoughts, but the way how it has been written looked like the beginning of the letter, but the recipient was unidentified.
2, 4. "to be enchanted" gives you an idea of magical atmosphere of the old City, older it gets more hearts are being left in there. I used "to fall in love with" afterwards, you don't need the unnecessary repetition.
3. City, I have capitalized to show respect.
5. You want to intensify the idea of respect and love in the last paragraph, so I have placed the pebbles in front, as in the beginning of any city there were stones and pebbles. Some of the adjectives like authentic cafe I don't understand, you mean old-fashioned ones which were built when Adam was a boy? The last bit is the Neva river, it is good to mention some places and names as well when you are basically inviting people to see your city!
Craving to visit the soul of Russia! Well done!
