Hi Rene, How long <3 It's me, Julia, sending this email to invite you on a trip. It's been months since we last saw each other and so I wanted to invite you to spend the vacation together. In case you don't know, I have now become an editor at Sergipe Magazine, a famous political magazine in the country, and during the school vacations at the end of the year, I decided that I wanted to travel to the city of Botucaíba, in the interior of São Paulo. You may be wondering why a teacher from São Bento do Oeste would want to spend her vacation in a city in the interior of São Paulo. I want to spend my vacation in a town in the countryside of São Paulo. To know the answer comes to me personally hahaha. I hope this e-mail finds you well! Yours truly, - Julia
