You do NOT need to write any addresses.

Begin your letter as follows:

Dear ……………,


Sample Answer

Dear Niro,

Hope you’re in good health and spirit. I felt so happy to receive your letter last week. Anyway, you’ll be glad to know that I’ve bought a nice gift, actually, a wristwatch for you when I went to visit Switzerland about a couple of weeks ago.

I know how you’ve always loved to wear a wristwatch, especially one from Europe. So I’ve bought one for you, which is gorgeous and classy in my taste. Housed in a beautiful platinum case, this watch has a shiny, dark silver colour strap. Besides, its crystal perfectly matches with its hour markers inside which illuminate nicely in the dark. It is made by “Tissot”, one of the renowned watch brands in Switzerland.

I chose this gift because not only it’ll look good on you, but also because it won’t get damaged quickly due to excessive sweating, especially, when I know how profusely you sweat during the summer. I also thought it would be a good gift from my tour for you.

I think I’m going to mail this watch in a courier service which should be delivered to you in the next couple of days. Please let me know whether I should courier to your home or office address.

Take care and stay fine.

Warm wishes,

Martin
