You are moving to a new city for work and have just realized that an old friend lives in the city. Write a letter to your friend. In your letter: Ask them for advice in finding accommodation Tell them where you would like to live Tell them the type of place you are looking for Write at least 150 words. You do NOT need to write any addresses. Begin your letter as follows: Dear ___,

Dear ____, I hope you are doing great! It has been a long time since we had a meeting at the reunion party thrown by Arsh 2 years ago. As you may remember that I am working with the iTech company for 2 years in my hometown. But
last
week, I got promoted to senior Manager in the company and got the opportunity to shift my
office
to your city Bangalore. As I have never been to
this
city before,
therefore
, need some help from you to find accommodation for me and my parents as they are
also
accompanying me. I would like to live in an urban area but less populated as I want a peaceful environment to concentrate on my job because most of my work would be done from home and wouldn't be going to the
office
quite often.
Moreover
, a place from where all the necessary facilities couldn't be far away will be preferable. Specifically, I am looking for a 2-Storey house with at least 3-4 rooms because I will be converting one of the rooms into an
office
for me.
Also
, wanted to have a nice and reputed neighbourhood so that it would be easy for my parents to adapt to the new place by making some good relations with the neighbours as I could be busy with my
office
stuff most of the time. Please give me some suggestions related to
this
. I look forward to hearing from you. Best Regards, Prabh
