Anna’s Email:|

Hi!

How are you? I hope you're doing well. Last weekend I went to a music festival with my cousin. It was so much fun! We saw a lot of bands and even met some of the artists. The food was also amazing – I tried sushi for the first time!

What did you do last weekend? Do you want to meet up soon? Maybe we can go to the cinema or have lunch somewhere. Let me know when you're free!

Love,

Anna
