You have been offered a job that will require you to move to a city that you have never visited before. You have an acquaintance who lives there. Write a letter to the acquaintance. In your letter •explain your situation •say why you feel unsure about living in the city •ask some question about life in the city.

Hello Peter, How are you? I hope you are always well and safe. I am really excited to share with you that I am going to move to your city soon because I have been offered a great job there. It’s amazing to me because I can visit your city.
However
, I’ve got some concerns to tell you. I’ve never been to the city, so I somehow feel unsure about living in a new place that I do not know much about. By the way, could I ask you some questions so that I can be best prepared? What is the weather like and should I bring some special kinds of clothes and footwear? What are some things that I should pay attention to, regarding the local culture and lifestyle? What kind of transport should I use there to commute to work and what kind of accommodation should I rent? Thank you and look forward to hearing from you, Yours sincerely, Hien
