A friend of yours is thinking of going on a camping holiday for the first time this summer. He/she has asked for your advice. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter, explain why you think your friend would enjoy a camping holiday describe some possible disadvantages say whether you would like to go camping with your friend this summer

Dear Owen, I hope you are doing well. I have just received your letter in which you have asked for my advice about a camping vacation
this
summer
. I am glad that you have considered me for that.
Firstly
, I think you should take the opportunity and go on
this
trip as I believe will thoroughly enjoy it.
Such
camping and outdoor activities have various advantages; it helps you to be more self-reliant and get to know new people.
Also
, it cultivates the ability to work in teams. It allows you to harmonize with mother nature as well. On the flip side, one of the most common challenges, which makes sleeping outdoor slightly inconvenient, is the swarms of nocturnal insects
such
as flies and mosquitoes which possibly strike camps. So please be cautious about it. I wish I could accompany you on
this
trip!
However
, I have already enrolled in a
summer
course.
Therefore
, I have to study during the
summer
to improve my grades. Perhaps, we can re-do it
next
year. I wish you an excellent and safe
summer
camping. I look forward to hearing about your holiday when you get back. Best wishes, Samer

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.
