Last month you had a holiday overseas where you stayed with some friends. They have just sent you some photos of your holiday. Write a letter to your friends. In your letter: thank them for the photos and for the holiday explain why you didn’t write earlier invite them to come and stay with you
Dear Abi and Bran,
How are you? I hope all is well. I just received the photos you sent. The photos were amazing! Staring back at them made me miss you even more. It was indeed a wonderful experience to spend the holidays with you.
Anyways, I want to thank you both for the photos and for letting me stay at your
place
. I really had a great time
. Time
flew too fast but thankfully we were able to use it well.
I'm sorry I was not able to write back the soonest because I was so swamped with work the moment I came back to the office. It was like back to reality again! I wish I could extend the holidays and not be dragged into my daily boring routine.
And since we already spend the holidays at your place
, this
time
why not here at my place
? Summer holiday is just around the corner and this
time
of the year is great for outdoor activities. We have a great trekking place
and we can visit the temple ruins here in Cambodia. Don't worry about your accommodation. Both of you can stay at my house. I have a vacant room which you can use.
Write back soon and let me know if the plan suits you!
Warm regards,
