Dear Ella,

    Do you remember when we used to talk about was it was like on the opposite side of the world? All that my tiny brain capacity has to offer is that we were just so excited about it, planning every little thing. I still have in mind after all those years your passionate, confident voice and your adventurous attitude.
   My good friend and I have decided to travel around Europe to open new boundaries to discover many more of the beautiful cultures that are yet to be found.
   One of those happened to be a tiny country in located in Italy. How it came to exist is remains a mystery until now, but the citizens say the legend it all began in the 4th century when two monks from Croatia fled from persecution. One of the men had special powers anbuilt a church. And voilà, San Marino was born.
    The most popular tourist attraction here turned out to be the most exhausting. We had to trek up thousands of flights of stairs and I got slightly dehydrated. I wanted to go back to the hotel but my friend insisted on continuing.
    When I got to the very top and slowly opened my eyes, the view was absolutely incredible. A panoramic view of the entire city was given before me. It felt like reality Game of Thrones, to be honest (the first thing that came into my mind). The little red houses scattered in the city side, contrasted to the calming, vast plains of San Marino.
   I need to take you there someday, Ella.

Sincerely, 
Yulina Goto

  1. Wow, the place sounds amazing. However, I'm not really sure what place you're at. I'm assuming you're in San Marino in Italy, but is the "most popular tourist attraction" San Marino itself or some place in it? Anyways, great postcard, it's really well written. :)

  2. I was supposed to be talking about San Marino as a whole, but also describing the view from the mosty popular tourist attraction, the Rocca Guita ^^
    (does that make sense, even?)
    I tried to improvise it so the reader can clearly understand what I was talking about.. T-T
