Dear Akash, Hope

this

letter finds you in radiant health and the best of spirits. I am writing

this

letter to thank you for the splendid time we have spent together. Like

last

month, I got an opportunity to visit one foreign country with friends and I choose New York City,

moreover

, I was getting difficulties in researching for accommodation as it was going out of my budget. So I decided to call you as you are a citizen over there for 5 years. On top of that, it was so kind of you to let us all stay at your home. I would like to thank you for all the arrangements and the photos which were clicked by you in your brand new iPhone 13 pro and I just loved it. I was thinking to write

this

letter way before,

however

, due to my hectic work, I was unable to deliver it on time. Now it's your turn to visit my place, Ahmedabad, which is famous for different types of cuisine, meanwhile, you don't have to look for accommodation as you can stay at my place for free. Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Yours Lovingly, Dhaval S Patel.
