Jajaja. Mi hermana se llama Tina. ¿Será que escribió este anuncio clasificado? Jajaja. Bueno, a decir verdad, me parece que acá se juntaron el hambre y la necesidad: Ella adinerada, inteligente, joven y atractiva. Él, un amante de los viajes, la naturaleza y la buena comida, jeje.
Presiento que ella tiene la billetera llena, y él tiene muchos motivos para hacer que ella invierta en su felicidad, jeje.
Gracias por la invitación. Espero estar pasando por allí.
Great to know your sis matches this description and am also sure she did not write this advert hahaha. I am afraid I ruined my chance of winning this contest by inviting you because you are too good at such work hahahaha.
Jajaja. No te preocupes, si gano; yo pongo el dinero; y tú me regalas tu presencia y buena conversación, jajaja. Un abrazo.

Feedback
@dove11 I appreciate your use of the almost literal format of classified ads. Although, considering short fiction, it's good to ask yourself whether numbers and addresses contribute to the story or are unnecessary. At least in the first one, I feel the word Aquarius and 49 go very well; we imagine a personality. I wish I could write with such a respectful tone of voice; it lends its truth.
However, when reading the translation of the second ad, I feel you lacked a certain "malice." Although the message is a clear invitation to any man that, if he accepts, he'll receive free rides in exchange for other favors. Both stories are very good.
