Thank you!!
Hi Carolina,
I just wanted to write and say thank you for everything.
You and your family were amazing hosts. I had a great time at your house. Thank you for making me feel at home. I'm sure my English improved a lot because of all your help too! Also, thank you for all the wonderful cooking you did. Now I can tell everyone English food is not as bad as they say .
If you ever come to Sri Lanka, I hope you will stay with me and I can show you my city too.
Keep in touch!.
Pradeep
Tips
- Start with Hi if it is an informal email to someone you know.
- The email can have three main paragraphs:
- the reason for writing (= to say thank you)
- the main point (= more details or examples)
- a wish or offer for the future.
- Use emojis (e.g. ) or emoticons (e.g. :) ) to show you're joking.
- You can say See you soon / See you next year if you hope to meet again.
- Use a closing phrase like Keep in touch, Write soon, Speak soon or Take care.

Yes, of course! Although I am afraid of new people , I still love knowing of different cultures. I can also improve my English skills by practising with them. So I think it's a great way to learn English.

Hi Derek, I write you letter because I would like to say thank you for have me a dinner the last night. I had never eaten those dishes. Too, I love to visit places in the night, and more in the new places that I don't know.
I wish you the best and I hope you pass the finish exam as you wish. :D
See you next year, Kisses.

I’d prefer to stay with a host family but not overnight. I’d have lunch, spend my day with the family then I’d leave before dinner and sleep in a hotel. After having me for whole day, they need to have a private family time.
