Dear Ben Clark (You don’t need to use the surname

for an informal letter.)
Thank you for your last letter. It was great to hear
from you. The ice hockey sounds brilliant!
You asked me if I enjoy sport. Well, I live near the
sea and I love surfing, so I’ve just joined a club. It’s
really good fun because the people are very nice
and I’ve already made some good friends.
I haven’t been surfing on my own yet, but I’m having
lots of lessons. I’m already a lot better than before.
I hope you can come here one day and we can go
surfing together!
See you soon!
Miguel
