Let me tell you about two cities, Liverpool and Chester. My friend, Jake, lives in Liverpool. It's a
bustling city, full of energy! In contrast, my hometown, Chester, is smaller and calmer than
Liverpool. The buildings in Liverpool are tall, while in Chester, they're shorter and have a more
historical vibe.

Life in my town is simpler and more affordable than in Liverpool. Liverpool is busier and has
more people. The traffic in Liverpool is a bit worse than in Chester. There are plenty of
entertainment options in Liverpool, such as cinemas, cafes, shopping malls, and theaters. It's a
more famous city compared to Chester. Personally, I find Liverpool more interesting and
enjoyable.

Hi Amanda,

I'm feeling a bit down. I was thinking of going shopping, but the weather is quite chilly with snow
everywhere. It's freezing at -5 degrees Celsius, and the whole place is covered in ice. I'm attaching a
photo of the current situation in Stockholm. How's the weather treating you in Milan?

Take care,

Alex

Hey Alex,

Cheer up! There's so much you can do to have fun. Hang out with your buddies, have a snowball fight,
go ice skating, or build a snowman.

We're currently dealing with a heavy rainstorm and lightning here. It's quite intense, and we're stuck
indoors. Sending you a snapshot of the weather.

Stay safe,

Amanda
