¡Hola, Lucía! Mi casa está un poco lejos de la estación. Tienes que coger el autobús 12. La parada está a la izquierda de la estación. Bajas en la plaza del Mercado. Luego sigue todo recto y gira a la derecha en la segunda calle. Mi piso está en el número 8, al lado de una farmacia. ¡Hasta el sábado!

Hi, Lucía! My home is a bit far from the station. You have to take bus 12. The stop is on the left of the station. You get off at Market Square. Then go straight on and turn right at the second street. My flat is at number 8, next to a pharmacy. See you on Saturday!

Can you do it?
