Dear Aisha, I hope you and your family are all doing well. It was
such
a great pleasure meeting with you all
last
week on my annual working holidays.
Additionally
, when I returned back to my home I did not find my wallet it was missing from my bag
however
, I thought it was left in your home.
Firstly
, I would like to thank you for
such
a wonderful trip to the different places in my leisure time as well as the most delicious food that was prepared by your mom it was really tasty on the holidays. It was
such
an adventurous experience with you all that I have spent there.
Secondly

last
, I was sitting in a living room before I went to the airport.
In addition
, it was colour in black and it's made up of leather fabric and has small pictures of a heart shape so that you could find it easily.
Lastly
, I would suggest you please send back my wallet as soon as possible by means of courier service so that I can collect it from the post office near my house. I look forward to your immediate response. Best Wishes, Yusra
