Dear Sir, It is great to know that you have planned for the holidays. Thank you for asking about the camping holidays, Indeed, I will recommend you some amazing things So, I have past experience of camping so I believe I would suggest that you will experience a new world on the camping site because that would be exciting. What's more, there must be a bonfire which you can enjoy and dance to. You have not been to camps before so you would
also
enjoy the food of the hills, the weather, and the sunsets and sunrise. The campsites always have a different style of accommodation, food.
However
, there would be some cons as well as the weather must be chilly so you should carry warm clothes along with you. Mind you, modular facilities might not be available in
such
tourist places as washrooms, heaters, etc. Anyways, I too have applied for leaves to my manager if he approves that
then
I will be accompanying you on
this
trip, and there we can enjoy ourselves a lot together by trying some available sports activities near to that place. Take care and stay fine. Your Friend, Swati Arora

The Greeting

Depending on the style and aim of the letter, you will need to adapt your greeting.

Always start an informal letter in the ways:

  • Dear + name
  • Hi / Hello + name

‘Dear...’ is more appropriate, so stick with this.

For a formal letter there are two options for the greeting:

  • Use Dear Sir or Madam if you don’t know the name of the person you are writing to.
  • Use Dear + surname if you do know their name, e.g. Dear Mr Smith or Dear Mrs Jones.
