Dear Sam,

How are you doing? I hope everything’s fine!

Actually, I’m going to visit the town you’re studying at this weekend. I have some work issues to solve there. So, as it’s a working trip, I’ll stay at the hotel near the river, which is within walking distance from your previous place of living, as I remember.

I know you’re pretty busy at university and don’t want to disturb you. But I’ll appreciate it if you can suggest some entertainment near the hotel I’ll stay at. Although it’s a business trip, the evenings will be free from duties and I’m looking for an opportunity to hang out. Please, write me back if you have time.

Thank you in advance.

Yours,

Alina
