Dear Simon,
I hope my letter will find you in good health. The reason why I'm writing to you is because I'll be travelling to Europe next month and I would love to ask you to look after my cosy apartment.
To begin
, I decided to take my holidays on the 15th of June due to
the summer season because I haven't been there and also
many friends suggested visiting it. Many times I considered going to this
huge continent and it's the time to do it.
As you will be moving to Canada soon, it's perfect for you to have luxury accommodation in the CBD and twenty minutes from the airport, which will be available at least for one month at no cost to you and it has all the main mod-cons including a functional kitchen, and a beautiful bedroom. In the meantime will you mind caring about the accommodation?
Frankly, it is a simple task, as you probably remember I have many shiny roses in the garden, so please bring water to them twice per day, and also
check the mailbox as I'm waiting for prizes from the Racing Horse Club. Let me know if you need something else in advance, to plan everything.
I hope you text me back soon, so I organize your stay.
See you soon.
Best wishes,
Claudia .Submitted by klaudia2301 on
