Dear Jenny,

I am so glad to hear that you are coming to Alberta next month, it seems like we haven’t met for ages. But I want you to do me a favour while coming here.

I came to Canada in the year 2020 and since then I haven’t done any traditional shopping since the outfits are expensive, therefore, it will be a great help from your side if you can please buy 2 ethnic attires for me. But, make sure that the colour of these dresses will be in pastels only as you know how much I adore these colours, and your choice is just amazing in shopping so I think that you are the best person to select my costumes.

I am working as a full-time teacher here in Indian schools and you know they celebrate every Indian festival which is good however when it comes to clothes I don’t have anything to wear and sometimes I feel the penalty. This is the reason that I am eager to get this stuff.

Outfits are not the only thing that excites me but I am more excited to meet you. That is why I am sharing my Canadian mobile number with you so that once you land here you can contact me and we can directly go for dinner from the airport. I can’t wait anymore to see you.

I am looking forward to see you soon

Best wishes,

Gurleen
