Single Idea per Paragraph
You've provided a lot of good information in your letter, but ensure each paragraph covers one main idea. This makes your writing easier to follow.
Complete Response
Your letter addresses the main points effectively, but consider adding a specific place at the airport where your pen pal can wait for you.
Additional Advice
A quick review of your grammar and punctuation could make your letter even stronger. For example, 'so you have to wait for me till a hour.' should be 'so you have to wait for me for an hour.'
Suitable Writing Tone
You have an appropriate tone throughout the letter, which suits the context well.
Greeting and Closing
Your greeting and closing are suitable and polite.
Logical Structure
The letter's logical flow is well-maintained, making it easy to follow your points.

Use a variety of complex and simple sentences

You should use complex sentences in your writing, but it does not mean that you should try to make all of our sentences complex.

‘Complex’ sentences are not actually very complex; they are just two or more simple sentences put together. Putting them together makes the essay more coherent and cohesive.

Examples:

I really want to study but I’m too tired.

I wore a warm coat because the weather was cold.

If action is not taken soon on climate change, global warming will get worse.
