Write a letter to a foreign friend who has asked if they can stay with you when visiting your country. Include Why you do not have time to host them An alternate date Recommendations for what to do

Dear Mike, I am so glad to hear from you and your visit to my country next month. Unfortunately, I won’t be able to provide you with accommodation in my apartment because I’ve started the renovation of the flat and I’m planning to completely rebuild it. That is why I will be fully occupied with it, especially taking into account that my boss gives me only a few days off in order to settle all the details with a contractor. Meanwhile, I would like you to invite you to spend time with my family and me in December during the Christmas holidays. I will cook a turkey and my husband will make a homemade mulled wine with cinnamon, oranges, and mulled spices. I am sure you would like our celebration meal. In addition, the renovation will be over until the holidays and you will be our first guest after it. Nevertheless, you are already coming in August and I suggest you stay in a mountain resort called “Chymbulak”. As I remember, you are keen on hiking and it will be very convenient for you to explore our mountains from that place. It is unbelievable, but from that location, it is possible to complete one day hike to “Tuuksu” glacier, “Gorelnik” waterfall, “Mametov” lake, or other quite picturesque routes. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. Take care, Maria
