Dear Alex,

First of all, I would like to thank you so much for your invitation to visit Sydney. I am really excited to make this happen this time. It has been long one year we met last time in Malaysia and eager to tell you a lot of new things when we meet.

You mentioned once that your family is a great admirer of Indian culture and handicrafts; especially your brother, who loved wooden chess game set he got from India last time. This time I am planning to get some gifts for your parents and younger brother. I know David and am aware of his choice. But I never met your parents, so I have some ambiguity over picking the right gift for them. I would be grateful if you can advise me to choose the right present.

As you are aware this is the first time I am visiting Australia, I am very exhilarated. You know, I have long pending wish to do scuba and I wish I can do in this trip. However, you may suggest any other famous activities there which attract adventure lover tourist like me. Also, mention what kind of clothes and gears I should carry for this tour.

You will be surprised to know that I have joined Peta movement and now I am following a strict vegan lifestyle and I hope I won't find difficulties in finding suitable food for me. In case you fee otherwise, please let me know in advance so I carry some arrangement for myself during my tour.

Once again Thanks. Can't wait to meet you.

Yours,
ABC
