You are moving to a new country to go to university and will need a part-time job. You have a friend who lives in that country. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter, • apologise for not staying in touch • explain why you’re moving to this country • ask your friend if he/she can help you find a job

Dear Juan, I know it's been a
while
since our
last
letter and let me apologize for that, but it was for a goor reason: I was too busy dealing with some stuffs for my next trip,
such
as Visas and preparing the exam that I need to take to apply for the University, but the great news is that I'm moving to your country!! Isn't that great?? I have been doing some research and I found a couple of weeks ago that in your country, which by the way, is an english-speaking one, I am able to take the course that I've always wanted: "how to be the best of the best" at the Sydney University. And it's not just because of the course, but being sourranded by all the nature that Australia can bring, it really make me going nuts!
However
, during my investigation about where I could work I couldn't find anything appropiate for what I was looking regarding my studies. So, since you've been living there for quiet
such
a long time, I'd like to ask you if you could help me to find a place where I could start working in. I'd really appriciate it! I'd means the world to me! I'm looking forward to meet you soon! Best wishes, Nico
