Dear Rohan, How are you? I hope you are doing well. I am writing
this
letter to take care of my home next week. I am leaving for the airport at 11am on 20 November for a business meeting. My boss gave me
this
opportunity to attend
this
conference in Dubai, for 4 days. It is crucial for my professional growth. I will come back on 24 November at 1 pm. I will keep a spare key in the garden, close to the driveway under the statue. Just get the keys and water the plants in the kitchen once a day. And, check the mailbox and place all mail in the lobby.
Also
, on 22 November, collect the parcel from Amazon Boy at noon and sign on it. Open it and check everything is in good condition because I have ordered a dinner set. By chance, if I forget the keys
then
you can enter the door code 1278. Send me a message or give me a call if you need anything,and I will try to reach you as much as possible. Waiting for a prompt response from your side regarding
this
matter. Kind regards , Donald
