Hi Lucia

How are you? It was so nice to meet you last week in Sydney at the sales meeting. How was the rest of your trip? Did you see any kangaroos? I hope you got home to Mexico City OK.

Anyway, I have the documents about the new Berlin offices. We’re going to be open in three months. I moved here from London just last week. They are very nice offices, and the location is perfect. There are lots of restaurants, cafés and banks in the area. There’s also public transport; we are next to an U-Bahn (that is the name for the metro here). Maybe you can come and see them one day? I would love to show you Berlin, especially in the winter. You said you have never seen snow – you will see lots here!

Here’s a photo of you and me at the restaurant in Sydney. That was a very fun night! Remember the singing Englishman? Crazy! Please send me any other photos you have of that night. Good memories.

Please give me your email address and I will send you the documents.

Bye for now

Mikel

Hi Lucia嗨露西娅

How are you? It was so nice to meet you last week in Sydney at the sales meeting. How was the rest of your trip? Did you see any kangaroos? I hope you got home to Mexico City OK.你好吗？很高兴上周在悉尼的销售会议上见到您。剩下的旅程怎么样？你看到袋鼠了吗？我希望你能顺利回到墨西哥城的家。

Anyway, I have the documents about the new Berlin offices. We’re going to be open in three months. I moved here from London just last week. They are very nice offices, and the location is perfect. There are lots of restaurants, cafés and banks in the area. There’s also public transport; we are next to an U-Bahn (that is the name for the metro here). Maybe you can come and see them one day? I would love to show you Berlin, especially in the winter. You said you have never seen snow – you will see lots here!不管怎样，我有关于新柏林办事处的文件。我们将在三个月后开业。我上周刚从伦敦搬到这里。他们是非常好的办公室，而且位置非常完美。该地区拥有许多餐馆、咖啡馆和银行。还有公共交通；我们毗邻地铁（U-Bahn）（这是这里地铁的名称）。也许有一天你可以来看他们？我很想向您展示柏林，尤其是在冬天。你说你从未见过雪——你会在这里看到很多雪！

Here’s a photo of you and me at the restaurant in Sydney. That was a very fun night! Remember the singing Englishman? Crazy! Please send me any other photos you have of that night. Good memories.这是你和我在悉尼餐厅的照片。那是一个非常有趣的夜晚！还记得那个唱歌的英国人吗？疯狂的！请把那天晚上的其他照片发给我。好的记忆。

Please give me your email address and I will send you the documents.请给我您的电子邮件地址，我会将文件发送给您。

Bye for now暂时再见
