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.
) or emoticons (e.g. :) ) to show you're joking.Discussion

Yeah, I would like to stay with a host family in a foreign country. Since I want to visit different countries. Especially, I wonder about Norway, Canada, and Israel. They have various cultures. I love cold weather, and Norway and Canada's climates fit me. If I move or visit these countries, I will meet different people, and see stunning places. There is a diversity of food in these countries so that I can taste them.
Let's talk about a host family. I think that it could be great because I love the harmony of a family. Staying with a family in a foreign country leads to using English with ease as I have to connect a communicate rapidly. I can't be silent, I have to participate in movement with people. As a result, of course, it could be a pleasure for me. Maybe one day!
