Dear Musa,

Hello! How are you? I received your letter today. I am very excited to hear that you
are coming to stay with me for the holidays. I am sure we will have a lot of fun together. My
parents have agreed to let you stay with me. They offered to pick you up at the airport. All you
have to do is to tell us when you are coming. I will now tell you about some of the things you
will experience here in Indonesia.
You do not have to worry about the local spicy food. We have a lot of fast food
restaurants here like the ones you have in England. You can also shop for souvenirs to bring
home. Sarinah or Blok M is our famous shopping areas. They have many shops selling all
kinds of things. I am sure you will love them. I am also planning to take you to a few tourist
spots like Miniature of Indonesia, National monument, or Safari Garden. We can also go to the
Ancol beach where you can swim, play on the beach, and have picnics.
My family and I are looking forward to your coming. I hope to hear from you soon.
Good bye.

With love,

Randy

To: Tita Gadis

Hello Tita,

Thanks for the e-mail you sent four days ago. Sorry for the late response because I
have a lot of assignments to do. I have four to finish this week and I’ve only
submitted two so far. I reply to your e-mail as I have a short time while having
lunch.

Tita, I’m happy that you finally improve your cinematography skill. I understand
that you need that skill to do your job. I would be glad if I can help you make
documentary videos or short videos in the near future. Of course, I’m below you, but
I can learn.

To speed up your skill, I suggest you read online cinematography megazines and
books from the internet. You can also follow famous cinematographers’ social
media. Your English is excellent, so you don’t need to worry when speaking with
people around the world. I’m sure you’ll have lots of connections, so that they may
give you chances to join them one day. Good luck then!

I think it’s enough for now and keep in touch.

Love,

Nolla
