Task 4. WRITING
Hi Tom,
I've heard that you are planning to make a train journey across Europe. It made me really happy. You know that I also love traveling and it is always enjoyable for me. Especially, by train it is another thing! Fantastic!
However, I know that your parents don't let you do that. Don't be sad. Try to understand them. They may be worried about you. You know that there are lots of dangers in the way. That's why you should try to make them calm and promise to be always in touch. Or maybe say them that you will go by safety insurance company. But, anyway don't leave without their permission and pray. Because the permission of parents always keeps you safe everywhere.
By the way, if you have free time in summer I invite you to my home and enjoyable holiday. We will have fantastic time together. It will be better if you come on July because we study till the end of June.
Let me know what you think.
Write soon,
