in English.
So,
Maria starts
her email
by telling
Rory that
she's
missing him.
Te
I've made
and
Rory has
obviously
been indulging
in his
favorite
pastime
because she
asks him
how this
morning
dive was. Presumably the sea temperature in Scotland is a little lower than in
Majorca, where, according to Maria, it's sunny and there's a pleasant breeze this morning.
Maria goes on to say that she's been on the private beach of her Aunt Consuelos Hotel.
It's located in Calvia. If Rory's favourite pastime is diving, then one of the things Maria
likes doing most is sunbathing. Since her aunt has told her that she's never seen her looking
so pale after her year in Scotland, she feels she has to top up her tanning. She feels she has to top up her
Tano bit. Consuelo also thinks that Maria is looking radiant, radiant, as a result of being happy with
her new boyfriend Rory. This has given Maria an idea. She suggests to Rory that he should come and
work in Consuelo's hotel for the summer. This way, he'll be able to save some money for his doctorate
and be with her at the same time. Maria explains that Consuelo's husband died six months ago
and that she has found things very difficult. She also finds daily life.
life and the hotel on her own, quite a challenge.
There's lots to do and she needs someone trustworthy to give her a hand.
Necessita a alguien de confianza that Leche a mano.
Maria suggests that Rory could help to look after guests.
He would have his own room with breakfast, lunch and dinner included, and a decent wage thrown in.
She's talked things over with Consuelo and confirms that Rory would also have Mondays and
Tuesdays off.
and with a beach, diving, and Maria close by, what more could he ask for?
Maria is convinced that Rory would get on well with Consuelo.
She asks him to think about this offer.
She is working as a lifeguard on the beach four mornings per week,
so in their time off they'd be able to get to know the island.
She really wants him to meet her family and friends,
and she's really looking forward to seeing him.
Tengo much ganas de verte.
And we will hear what happens in the night.
