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.

Certainly, I really like to move to Canada, before it will visit and probably stay at in a family house.

Undoubtedly I won't miss this opportunity if I have got this chance. Because I always love to know about new cultures and explore something new. Without staying in any host family in a new country, it will be very tough to know about the new culture of that country.

Of course, Yes but with the respectable family that's trying to kept up your privacy. Also, living in isolated suite or room to feel more confident in that place.
Wish you all enjoy with your future trip.
