Letter to a friend

Dear Susan,

Thanks for your letter; it was a great to hear from you again! It’s been such a long time since we wrote to each other. How are you? I’m very fine but I’m also so busy. On the one hand I’m working on my final project very hard and on the other hand, I’m studying English because I’m going to study in England next year with the Erasmus program! I’m very happy!

You asked me about the best place to live in Spain. If I were you, I would live in Granada. Talking from experience, Granada is a city where you’ll found find everything necessary for a good live. It’s situated in Andalusia on the south of Spain and it’s a wonderful small city with a legendary history. As result of her its history, it has beautiful monuments such as the Cathedral, the Albaycin or and the famous Alhambra, in addition to of the Sierra Nevada where you could ski.

The food is great, even very famous. If you order a beer or a soft drink, you will get a free “tapa” which is a typical custom in Granada.

The weather in Granada usually is sunny, however in winter it’s very cold. Despite the cold, I think you don’t won't need too many winter clothes, maybe a good coat. But don’t worry with about this since in Granada there are a lot of shops with clothes cheap.

I know you are longing to hear all about how to improve your English. In my opinion, the best option is talking with Spanish people, but if you want to improve your grammar, you can go at one to an academy. In Granada there are five and I know they’re excellent.

Let me finish by saying that I’m sure if you live in Granada, you’ll love this city!

Please, drop me a line soon.

Best wishes,

Antonia
