Dear Sir,
I’m writing to request a valuable chance to be one of the host family for the British students. Locating in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood, our large fully-equipped apartment meets all their needs. Apart from the conveniently public transportation, our own car can also take them to some nearby places of interests. With fluent English and an outgoing personality, I’m sure I will have no difficulty communicate with them. Above all, we host two British students last year, through that we’ve gained lots of experience. In addition, my mother’s expert cooking can guarantee for them a wonderful chance of taste delicious Chinese food.
I would greatly appreciate if I could have the chance to host them and make friends with them.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours truly,
Li Hua
