Hungry and cold, but safe

This happened a few years ago. We were travelling around Scotland. We had spent two days in Edinburgh —the nice capitol city—, when we rented a car to discover the Highlands.

We visited Stirling, took photos with William Wallace and enjoyed drinking Scottish whisky. But when we drove towards North again, we started getting in trouble. Our first problem was because of our car. It simply stopped working.

We were in the middle of an empty field, our cell phones didn’t work and the sun started falling. After walking for more than three hours, we found a lake and decided to camp there. It was spring, but night was really cold.

Next day, we noticed that this lake was the famous Loch Ness; however, the monster didn’t come to see us. If we had seen Nessie, we would have lived a full Scottish trip. That morning, a farmer helped us and drove us to Inverness, hungry and cold but safe.

Moving day

Hi Sam,

I told you in my last letter about problems with my neighbours. Certainly, is not pleasant to live under a heavy metal drum player and above a loudly bowling alley. A few weeks ago, I found a nice flat for rent and I decided to move there.

Like all moves, it's been so tiring and it seemed that it would never finish, but I've just been moving into the new place for ten days. I'm glad to live here: the area is much quieter and the neighbours are much more peaceful than the formes ones. Now, I'm not as close to the city centre, but here there are a lot of parks and amazing green areas.

Next month, I'm celebrating a house-warming party. I hope you will be able to come, but remember: you have to wear your Polynesian clothes.

Love,


M
