Essay topics:

Last month you had a holiday overseas where you stayed with some friends. They have just sent you some photos of your holiday.
Write a letter to your friends. In your letter:
• thank them for the photos and for the holiday
• explain why you didn't write earlier
• invite them to come and stay with you
Write at least 150 words.
You do NOT need to write any address.

Dear John and Mary,

I'm just writing to let you know that I've received the photos of my holiday last month.

I'm very glad that you sent me these beautiful pictures. They cover all breathtaking views of your city and all the amazing moments that we had while I was there. What's more, I want to give my thanks to both of you and your family for welcoming me this whole time. Seriously, you don't know how thankful I am for your hospitality.

The reason I couldn't write you sooner is that this has been a hectic week for me. I had to work restlessly last week to deliver my work before the deadline. Luckily, I finished yesterday in time and I'm sorry for this late response, my friends.

my boss has given me another break for the rest of the month as a reward so if you could, I would like to invite you to come to my house. if you're not free this time, then I hope you'll give me a call anytime the future so I can return the favor.

I hope to see you again soon

All the best,
Truong
