  Dear Christine,

  Thanks for your letter! I was glad to get your letter.

Well, I think that a language school in St. Petersburg is the best choice. Firstly, it is a wonderful city in which you can easily practice the Russian language. Also, all prices in St. Petersburg are lower than in Moscow. In my opinion, you should visit the Hermitage, drawbridges, Peterhof, the Winter Palace, the Mariinsky Theater and the Summer Garden. As for weather it's unpredictable in St. Petersburg. However, in summer there is very good weather, about 20-25 degrees Celsius.

  I hope my advice will be useful. I finish my letter because I have to go on working.

  Best wishes,

  Дорогая Кристина,

за твоё письмо! Я была рада получить твоё письмо.

Что ж, я думаю, что языковая школа в Санкт-Петербурге - лучший выбор. Во-первых, это прекрасный город, в котором вы можете легко практиковать русский язык. Также все цены в Питере ниже, чем в Москве. На мой взгляд, стоит посетить Эрмитаж, разводные мосты, Петергоф, Зимний дворец, Мариинский театр и Летний сад. Что касается погоды, то она не предсказуема в Питере. Тем не менее, летом очень хорошая погода, около 20-25 градусов по Цельсию.

Я надеюсь, что мой совет будет полезен. Я заканчиваю свое письмо, потому что я должна продолжать работать.

С наилучшими пожеланиями,

  Ваше имя
