My dear Pooja,

I hope this letter finds you and your family in good health. I want to let you know how delighted I am with my recent visit to you. I adore your home for its contemporary features, which include three bedrooms that are well ventilated and tastefully furnished with connected bathrooms. Additionally, the most remarkable aspect of your family is how loving and caring it is. Additionally, the large balcony, which is completely adorned with vibrant flowers, is an appealing feature of your home, since it is where we had evening tea together while admiring the lovely view of nature. I had a great time in your home. I am at a loss for words to convey my gratitude for your extraordinary hospitality.

I've come up with an excellent proposal, my buddy. Why don't you arrange a visit to my home and stay with me over your upcoming summer vacations? The address to my farmhouse is listed on the reverse of the letter. I'm overjoyed at the prospect of your stay with me.

It would be fantastic if you could make this happen.

I am grateful for your affection and for such a lovely experience.

With affection,

Suruchi

Dear Suruchi,

I hope this letter finds you in good health, and your family as well. I want to tell you that I'm pleased after a memorable visit to your home by spending some quality time together.

I like your house very much due to its modern features. All three rooms are fully ventilated and very large, with attached bathrooms. Moreover, the most impressive thing about your house is the spacious balcony, which is fully decorated with beautiful flowers and plants, where we enjoyed the evening tea together by seeing the beautiful view of the garden. I felt very pleased with your house, and I don't know how to thank you for your wonderful hospitality.

My friend, I have a great idea. Why don't you plan a visit and stay with me during the coming summer vacations at my farmhouse? The address of the farmhouse is written on the back of the letter. I'm very excited about thinking about your stay with me very soon.

It would be great if you could make it.

Thank you for your love and for such a memorable holiday time.

With love,

Priya.
