A friend you met last year has invited you to visit him in his country. You have never been there before and need some information before you leave.
Write a letter to your friend. In your letter,
Request advice about a gift for his family
Ask about activities and clothes in his country
Find out about the food
Dear James,
I’m glad to inform you about my visit to your place next week. And of course, I’m really excited to meet you soon.
I wanted to check about the gifts that I could purchase from here for you and your family. Can I buy you some famous sweets from here? They taste absolutely delicious. Tell me what else you need for your Dad, Mom and brother.
I have planned for a two-week trip. So, it’s no doubt that we are going to have a power-packed tour on visiting some significant tourist spots around your place. I know nothing about your area, so it’s your responsibility to guide me throughout the trip. Make an itinerary about the activities and inform me beforehand so that I can pack my clothes accordingly. What clothing is preferred at your location? Will some cotton clothes do, since it’s summer right now?
The most important of all is the food. What kind of cuisines do I get to taste? Hope I’m in for a treat to enjoy the variety of classic dishes there. Can’t wait to see you.
Looking forward to your quick response.
Best wishes,
Krithika.
