A friend of yours is going on holiday and has asked you to recommend a destination. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter recommend a good place that you have visited before for a holiday say where you went and where you stayed say what you can do there and what the food was like
Dear Sara
I hope
this
letter finds you healthy and wealthy. I am writing to draw your attention to Vancouver
as the most interesting holiday destination from my standpoint.
Let me explain in more detail. I have been to Vancouver
twice, it is not only surrounded by beautiful landscapes but also
provides you with good opportunities for shopping. There are several harbours, forests, and outlets which I described for you in the attached file.
The last
time I was there was last
September. I was accommodated at the ABC hostel which is located downtown just near Gastown.
There are plenty of activities to do depending on your budget, but I firmly recommend to try fly over Vancouver
which is located beside Vancouver
Central Hall. The most important part of Vancouver
is the numerous options to eat. I highly recommend Akbarjoje restaurant. It was outstanding!
I hope you will enjoy Vancouver
and I'm waiting to see your photos from there.
With love
