A friend of yours is thinking of going on a camping holiday for the first time this summer. He 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 Sara, I'm very excited that you are thinking about going camping and would be more than happy to answer your questions. From my previous experience, I would say you will extremely enjoy
this
trip as it is your
first
trip to a campsite. After all,
this
will not just be another camping trip, you will get a chance to observe nature closely and walk in the wilderness.
This
will rejuvenate you like nothing else. Despite its good side, there are some downsides
also
to be considered. On top of that, as you are a private person, you may find it difficult to share a bathroom or even a tent
also
. Plus, sometimes the weather could be unfavourable and you'd have to deal with bug bites. By the way, I am unable to attend
this
journey due to my meetings. I hope you do not mind,
next
time I will try to join you in these activities. Please don't hesitate to write to me if I can help with anything at all. Best wishes, Rupi
