SAMPLE LETTERS


Sample letter to a friend in English - About cities and countries 
Dear Helen,
You asked me about my life in New York. I will tell you all about it.
I have been in New York for two weeks and I have done millions of exciting things. I have met a lot of interesting people and I have made some new friends. I have visited Metropolitan Museum of Art, Central Park and Statue of Liberty. I haven’t done any souvenir shopping yet, but there’s plenty of time for that.
Well, that’s all. Maybe we will be able to meet one day?
Yours truly,
Georg

Dear Emily,
Sorry that I haven’t written you for so long but I was busy all this time.
I have a great news! My parents allowed me to go to Italy for two weeks! It was a great time. Let me tell you how I spent that amazing journey.
My sister and I stayed in a nice hotel in the centre of Rome. The room was convenient and there was a great view from the windows. Every day we enjoyed tasty cuisine, had fun at discos and swam in the large pool. During ten days we visited a lot of wonderful places such as Colosseum, Pantheon, Triton Fountain. You can’t even imagine how many photos I took! We really appreciated being there because of all the amazing sights and experiences we had.
I could write more but I really need to go. Hope we will meet soon.
Lots of love,
Ann

Dear Sam,
Thanks for your letter! It was great to hear front you so soon.
You asked me to tell you about Moscow. Well, it is a very beautiful city especially in autumn when all trees are of different colors. The heart of Moscow is the Kremlin. It's an ancient fortress with beautiful churches inside.
Moscow is a unique city, where history and modern life are brought together. In the one hand, you can enjoy traditional Russian festivals such as Maslenitsa. On the other hand, Moscow is a modern 24-hour city where you can visit different theaters, cinemas and exhibitions.
By the way, will you tell me about your school and school life? Do you have any clubs at school? Are you given much homework? Please write back.
I look forward to your reply.
Yours, 
Boris
