If you want to visit my country, you should try to visit my city and the capital, but there are some differences. my city is much more far north, so it gets colder in the rainy season, but you can sunbathe and swim in the sea in summer. It is more beautiful than the capital, too, because it is by the sea, and it has more hill, park and garden. It is bit more difficult to visit my city than the capital because we don’t have an international airport, but there are the best train and coach services than there used to be.
