Dear Mary, Im writing to you from my new flat in the city. Im living with my sister now. The flat is great and its
very modern. Its got large windows, a big balcony and two bedrooms. Unfortunately, Im sleeping in the smaller
room, but the view is better. The neighbourhood is really safe, and the underground stops right in front of our block
of flats. Its amazing how easy it is to get around. In the city centre, there are many great shops, restaurants, theatres
and museums! I love living here. The only bad thing is that sometimes its noisy. Last night, the traffic was very bad
and I couldnt sleep. Anyway, come and visit me sometime. Maybe this weekend? We can spend the day in the city
centre and have a great time!

Write back soon, Lisa
