Dear Chris,
I am writing to ask you for some information that will help me make a decision. I have recently been offered a job in
Seattle
. I am very much interested in the job, but, as you know, I have never even visited Seattle
. I am not sure whether I would like to live there. Since you have lived there for a while, I thought you could answer some questions for me.
One thing I am worried about is the weather. I have heard that it rains in Seattle
all the time. Is this
true? It sounds very depressing. I have also
heard that Seattle
is a growing city, and I am afraid it would feel very crowded to me. I have never lived in a big city before. Another thing I wonder about is leisure activities. I like going out dancing a lot. Are there good places to go dancing in Seattle
? What about music? I would not want to live in a place where I could not go to concerts frequently.
Another important issue is housing. I have heard that Seattle
is very expensive. Is it hard to find a nice apartment at a reasonable rent? What neighbourhoods would you recommend?
I appreciate your taking the time to answer my questions, and I look forward to hearing from you. If I decide to accept the job in Seattle
, then
I hope we will be able to get together frequently.
Best wishes,
