You are going to spend your vacation in a city in a foreign country. You have never been there before. Your cousin has a friend who lives there. Write a letter to the friend. In your letter
• Introduce yourself
• Say why you are making this trip
• Ask some questions about the city (e.g. places to see, things to do, things to bring)

Dear John,

Hello, my name is Irma. I'm Jake's cousin. When Jake told me that he had a friend who lived in Toronto, I was excited. I'm hoping to visit Toronto in the summer. I hope you don't mind that i asked for your address. Jake said you probably wouldn't mind answering some questions if I wrote to you.

When I found out that I would get there three weeks for a vacation this summer, i decided i wanted to go to a foreign country. I've always dreamed of going to Canada. I love watching baseball and i would love to see a major league game in Toronto. The Toronto Blue Jays are my favourite team.

Where should i stay when i visit Toronto? I think it is probably too expensive to stay in a hotel downtown the city centre for more than a week. Do you know any youth hostels? Also, could you tell me about the weather in the summer? I don't know what to pack.

I look foward to hearing from you if you have time to write back. Maybe, we can meet for lunch.

Best wishes,
Irma Klein

P/s. Jake said to say hello
