Hi, it's me. How's it going? I guess you're at work and you don't have your phone on, right? First of all, thank you, THANK YOU for the birthday card and message. I received it this morning. That's so nice of you. I'm organising a little party for my birthday. It's nothing very big – only a few of my best and closest friends. That means you too! We're going to have it at my cousin's house. She lives in the countryside in a nice big house with a swimming pool. I'd love to see you there. It's going to be this Friday. I'll send you the instructions on how to get there later, OK?
Anyway, have fun at work. Don't work too hard, OK? Talk soon.

Aw, you're still not answering your phone! OK, here are the instructions to get to my cousin's house for the party. Are you going to take your car? If you take the car, drive straight on Forest Road until you get to the motorway. Drive past Brownsville and take exit 13A. That's 13A. You drive down the road there and turn left. It's the first big house on the right. OK? If you're taking a bus, you can get the number 80 to Brownsville. Call me when you get there and somebody can pick you up in a car. I can't wait. This is going to be so great!
Yes, it's easy to follow the map,but in our country we don't have house address.so if you want go someone's house,you should ask people in the town . and they will guide you to it .

It's easy to describe the direction to my tawn and house.
But nowadays GPS and location make it easy .
No, it is not easy to get lost, but I can’t explain directions to someone who wants to come to me.
Yes it's easy
In my city the roads are easy to follow
yes it easy
I visited my friend last year and I describe my town
Is it easy to get lost in your town? Have you ever given directions to a visitor?
I think it is easy to find your way in my town, here in my new country. Indeed, I just have to give the address and the visitor can follow Google Maps. But this ease does not apply in my formal country, since houses do not have addresses like here. To direct a place there, I used to refer to commonly known places like shops, bars and others. However, there could be some ambiguity in naming some places like junctions for example. This could result in a misunderstanding of the instructions.
