Dear Smit, I hope you’re doing well and am looking forward to your stay in my apartment. I'm just writing to explain a few things which you’ll need to know during your stay. See, you can pop around
next
 door number 10, between 5pm to 8pm to get the keys to our apartment. Please ask for Mica there, as she’ll be expecting you. She’ll hand over the keys to you and will explain which key is which. Now, once you are there in the apartment, am sure you must need hot water for a shower as it's pretty cold over here. So, remember to turn on the boiler, half an hour before the bath and the switch for it is in the left corner of the kitchen.
Also
, I have kept some vegetables and fruits in the refrigerator for you, so that you can use them during the initial days. One final thing I wanna convey to you is to visit the light show happening every weekend on Maroos street. It’s so wonderful and lovely! Am sure you will enjoy it. Again, don’t miss having the mixed grill platter from the “Grill restaurant”, which I told you about the other week. Have a fun time and take care of the flat! Best regards, Smit

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘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.

Examples:

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

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
