Dear John, I am Raj from Delhi, India, writing to introduce myself. As a pen pal, I want to let you know more about me. I would like to thank you for your letter and it was nice knowing so many things about you. I must say, you have a great way of writing. We both share many common interests and hobbies and it is indeed a great surprise. The subjects that we had opted in for our respective college and university education were coincidentally common. As a matter of fact, it is due to this reason both of our employment sector and job responsibilities are strikingly similar. Ironically, the respective companies in which we both are employed are archrivals in the industry of Finance and Banking. I would like to update you about some of the recent events. I have lately joined yoga and meditation classes. However, I still do not miss my age-old hobby of swimming. It is hard to recollect even a single day, barring the weekly off, when I miss a dip in the swimming pool. Apart from this, my weekends are generally devoted to spending time strictly with my family. The overall credit for my health, however, goes to the one and a half session of yoga classes in the morning. Thank you for inviting me to visit your city. I will certainly try to come and meet you. Let us catch up in the coming December and till then take care and keep in touch. Warm wishes, Neeraj Mehra
Dear John,

I am Raj from Delhi, India, writing to introduce myself. As a pen pal, I want to
let
you know more about me. I would like to thank you for your letter and it was nice knowing
so
many
things about you. I
must
say, you have a great way of writing.

We both share
many
common interests and hobbies and it is
indeed
a great surprise. The subjects that we had opted in for our respective college and university education were
coincidentally
common. As a matter of fact, it is due to this reason both of our employment sector and job responsibilities are
strikingly
similar.
Ironically
, the respective
companies
in which we both
are employed
are
archrivals
in the industry of Finance and Banking.

I would like to update you about
some of the
recent
events
. I have lately
joined
yoga and meditation classes.
However
, I
still
do not miss my age-
old
hobby of swimming. It is
hard
to recollect even a single day, barring the weekly off, when I miss a dip in the swimming pool. Apart from this, my weekends are
generally
devoted to spending time
strictly
with my family. The
overall
credit for my health,
however
, goes to the one and a half session of yoga classes in the morning.

Thank you for inviting me to visit your city. I will
certainly
try to
come
and
meet
you.
Let
us catch up in the coming December and till then take care and
keep
in touch.

Warm wishes,

Neeraj
