Dear Michael, I hope you are doing well. I regret that I have not been in touch for a long time as these days have been busy. I would like to ask you to join us in Tehran on March 15th which is the

first

day of the Iranian year. There is a great opportunity to get together again and

also

you will be familiar with the most popular event in my home country. Our people celebrate the beginning of the year for 2 weeks and all companies have 10 days off for their members of staff. In Nowruz, numerous parties will be held and most of them serve traditional dishes like fish and rice which is really recommended. Plus, the weather is extremely proper for outdoor activities and sightseeing at that time which allows us to go around the city and visit different tourist attractions. There are several quality hotels near my house which offer good value for money. Their rooms are clean and their restaurant menu serves a wide range of international dishes.

Additionally

, as these places are not from my flat, I could pick you up there in a flash and we save time from sucking in traffic jams. I will send you the list of hotels and their websites to go through them and choose the best one. I will make the necessary arrangements after knowing your choice. I look forward to hearing from you. Best regards, Mohammad
