Winter Sports

You want to convince a friend to go with you to the mountains to do winter sports (example skiing, snowboarding, going for hikes with snowshoes etc.) with an email.

  1. First of all, I can't convince someone to do something that I don't like, I'm rather the friend who you try to convince. I hate skiing. The shoes hurt a lot, and it's very uncomfortable to wear skis.
    I love the snow, but not the winter sports

  2. Hi everyone, here is my email :
    "Dear friend,
    It has been a long time since we did not see each other and I was wondering whether you wanted to spend a part of your winter holidays with me. I have planned to go to a ski resort in Savoie with other friends and I am sure that you would be glad to join us.
    Eventhough you can't ski very well, we will have a great fun all together. Furthermore, one of my friend has quite a cosy and confortable chalet with a warm outdoor jacuzzi, which means that we will be able to have a bath after our ski-day. To my mind, it is the best thing you can get after skiing apart from a hot chocolate !

    Talk to your parents about my invitation and tell me as soon as possible if you intend to come with us or not.
    I would be overjoyed to see you again.
    Xx, Marie"

    1. I made several mistakes that I am going to correct here :
      First, I should have used present perfect instead of past simple in the first sentence : "It has been a long time since we haven't seen each other". Then, it is more appropriate to use "would" after whether : "wheter you would like to spend".
      Finally, we better say "after a day skiing" than "after our ski-day".
      I advise you to take time to correct your mistakes because working on the blog is a good way to improve your writing expression quality.

  3. Hello Johan,
    I send you this email to invite you for a winter sports weekend. We'll be staying in a big house next to the main place. We'll have a lot of activities during the day like skiing, surfing, ice-skating and once back home we'll go to my covered swimming-pool and maybe we'll call for pizzas and ice-creams.
    What do youn think about it?

  4. Hello Justine,
    A few days ago, I found a picture of us from last year and that reminds me that it’s been a long time that I haven’t seen you! So, I was wondering if you wanted to go on holidays with me and my family to do some winter activities in the Alps for one week.

    As you know, my grand-mother lives in a little town near to a ski resort and my family and me are going there every winter for holidays. If you come with me this year, we can have a good time: in the morning, we can do what we want, for example get up when we want, take breakfast when we want and eat what we want. After that, if we are in good shape, we can walk in the town to do shopping, and a lot of other things. As I said before: we really can do what we want. Then we will have lunch with my family (if you want to eat something special, just tell me) and in the afternoon, we will go by car with the whole family to the ski resort. It takes about thirty minutes to go there.
    Once arrived, you will discover a small but lovely ski resort with beautiful chalets and typical restaurants. Besides skiing, we can do a lot of other sports like snowboarding, sledging on the slopes, hiking with snowshoes and even take a ride on a dog sledge. Then we can go to a restaurant or a snack bar to eat and drink something and listen to the music there. And when everybody is tired, we will return to home. If we still have some energy in the evening, we can go to a famous bar in town, I am sure you will appreciate! Every year we have a lot of fun!

    In other words, I hope that you will share this adventure with me this year! Longing to hear from you. Love

    1. Sorry, I made some mistakes:"a picture of us taken last year" instead of "a picture of us from last year" and "it reminds me that we haven't seen each other for a long while" instead of "that reminds me that it's been a long time that I haven't see you".
      I wrote "I was wondering if you wanted to go on holidays" but it's "I wondering if you would like to go on holidays" and I wrote "in a little town [...] and my family and me are going there every winter" but it's "in a small town [...] and we go there every winter". Besides, "have breakfast" instead of "take breakfast", "with all my family" instead of "with the whole family". I wrote "a small but lovely ski resort" but it's "a small and lovely ski resort".

  5. Dear John,
    How are you ? I am writing to you because I would like to invite you to go on a skiing holliday with me in March. I really think it would be great if you accepted to come, as the weather will be great and I think you'll enjoy practicing winter sports with me and my other friends. I have heard that there will also be a lot of snow, so it will be perfect ! On top of that there will be a lot of friends of mine that are very nice.
    I'm looking forward to hearing from you,
    Octave MOULARD 2°01

  6. Hy Mathieu,
    I hope everything is fine. I'm really happy because my mother told me that I can bring someone to my skiing holiday (in the first week). I know that snow it's not your cup of tea but we will ski or do all the winter sport you want, drink hot chocolate and eat out. The morning we can also go sledging, it's great fun!
    So tell me if you want to go with me and tell your parents also.
    I'm looking forward to hearing from you,
    XOXO.

  7. Hello Valéria,
    I'm going to the mountains this weekend, and I want to convince you to come with me and my other friends.
    Do you want to do ski joering with me?
    I'm asking you this question, because I know you like horses like me and I think that it's a good idea and it can be a good experience, because I never did it.
    If you are okay, the bus leaves at 10a.m and then, we are eating at my parents' flat. Afterward, we are returning home at almost 6p.m.
    You can bring some drinks because there are some other friends too.
    Tell me your answer.
    XOXO

  8. Dear Emily,
    I am writing to you because I would like to invite you to come with me and some friends of mine to the
    mountains to do some winter sports during the next holidays !
    First of all, since we are not in the same high school we don't see each other a lot so it would be such a great occasion, then we rent a beautiful cottage near of the ski resort for the week and apparently the weather will be perfect for the season.
    Moreover I've never skied of my life and I know you are so good at it so you could teach me, and don't worry my sister will be there to play the "babysitter".
    Talk to your parents about my invitation and tell me as soon as possible if you can come with us,
    I'm looking forward to hearing from you,
    xoxo

  9. Hi Betty, I'm writing to you because I really want to go on a mountain vacation with you. I think we could have fun and it would be a good opportunity to spend more time together. I thought maybe we could go next week-end, the weather is good and we do not have a lot of homework for the week after. I will learn about other details while waiting for your answer. Longing to hear from you,
    Sarah.

  10. Hello Tyler

    I hope you are fine.

    I know you don't really like winter sports and you don't know how to ski, but I didn't see you for a long time ago and I could teach you some things. I think if we stay together we could enjoy that trip and have a good time. I'm sure that it will be very funny and enjoyable.

    If you really don't want it doesn't matter we can do something else.

    Bye for now

  11. Dear Giulia,
    Hello my friend! How are you? I have a big surprise for your birthday... You and all our friends will go to the mountains to do winter sports like skiing and ice skating during the hollidays for a week. We will do a gigantic party. I would still like you to confirm this before the end of the week to book a beautiful apartment at Chamonix.
    Bye my friend, see you.

  13. Hello my friend !

    I am looking forward to see you again because I have so many things to tell you ! I am writing to you to ask you if you wanted to go to Auron in my cosy apartment during one week with me and other friends to spend time all together !
    I planned many days skiing or going for hikes with snowshoes in order to decompress. It can be very cool to ski together and eat a good “mountain meal” like the raclette around a big table next to the chimney and relax after a ski day. Then, after the dinner we can go for a drink in the village and walk outside when the snow falling like in a movie.

    XOXO

  15. Hello Adam,
    I'm writing to you today to offer you an amazing journey in the mountains this coming winter. We won't go far away from Nice but you'll live an unforgettable experience. I advise you to take some really warm clothes as we'll spend most of our time outside and it's very cold up there. You won't need to buy nor rent any sport equipment since we have plenty of everything!
    Oh, I forgot, you will be staying in Theo's cabin because I know you are both fond of snowboarding.
    I really hope you will be able to come this time, we can't have fun without you Adam. Please answer me quickly
    Take care and say hi to your family for me.
    XOXO

  18. Dear friend,
    How are you ? I’m going to the mountains in two weeks for a few days and it reminded me that the first time I ever skied was with you! Even though I can’t remember much because we were so young I do know that we had so much fun. So this is me inviting you to come skiing with me to relive old memories and to create new ones! Besides, we haven’t spent much time together since you changed schools and I would really like to catch up with you. Also, I have friends who will be there at the same time so we can all meet up and have a nice time!
    I really hope that you can come, let me know as soon as possible!
    Miss you xx

  19. Dear Pedro,
    I’m writing to you because, with Marcel, we’ve just had an idea: we want to go skiing together to celebrate your birthday. That's why we invite you from February 23th to 28th in Isola. There are a lot of snow and it’s not very expansive but the price doesn’t concern you because Marcel and I offer you these holidays.
    So be ready on time and don’t forget your hot clothes, your sunglasses, your hat and your gloves. And I’ve a last question: are you afraid by snowboarding? Because we want to try every winter sports like tobogganing, snowboarding, skiing, walking in the snow etc…
    I hope that you will be able to come with us because we’ll can’t celebrate your birthday without you, right?
    I’m looking forward to see you
    Your best friend, Sylvain Durif
    Cheers

  20. Hi !

    As you know, I love winter sports, especially skiing.Since I have a small apartment in a ski resort, would you like to go with me ?
    We would have so much fun !! I think I am also going to invite two more friends.
    Imagine the four of us skiing and hiking all day in the snow. There also is a small kitchen where we could cook all kind of indulgent recipes.
    Furthermore, I could give you my brother's pair of skis, he is the same height as you.

    Pack some winter clothes, and I'll hopefully see you soon !

    XOXO Coline

Also I know you enjoy skating in the skatepark and in the station we are going into, they've just oppened a new snowpark so please come with us to give it a try !

  26. Hi Dave,
    I hope you are doing well. I would like to go to the mountains this week and do some skiing before the snow melts. I thought that it could be great to ask you to come with me.
    I know that skiing is not your favorite sport so don't worry we won't only do that, we could also take our snowshoes to go for hikes, we could even make a giant snowman, or just chill in the hotel drinking hot chocolates in front of a beautiful fire! So, what do you think?
    I hope you will come,
    Can't wait to hearing from you.

  27. Dear William,
    It has been a while since we have seen each other... That’s the reason why I’m writing this email to you ! I know how much you love skateboarding and having fun in the snow with friends. A great mixture of both of these activities would be going snowboarding with me ! I think that it’s a great way to rebuild the friendship that we have lost over all of these years.
    I hope that you will be able to come.
    Cheers,

  28. “Dear Méline,
    It's been a long time since we last saw each other! How are you? I'm so happy because my parents have told me that we will be going to the mountains in February to go skiing for a week!! They also told me that I can invite one of my friends and I chose you because I know that you love winter. We will drive the car to get there, it will take about an hour and a half. We will go to our little home. It is as warm and comfortable as you like. One night we can watch a film while drinking hot chocolate under a blanket. There is also a heated swimming pool near our chalet and we can go there if you wish too ;) In addition, the restaurants overlook the ski slopes. It could be relaxing and we'll get a breath of fresh air. If you don’t like skiing you can snowboard or go sledding. I also saw on the Internet that you could go for a dog sled tour in the snow. That would be diverting.
    I hope that you will accept my invitation and your parents too. Can you tell me your answer as fast as you can please! Bye bye!”
