My Dear Friend,

It gives me profound satisfaction to have experienced such a special journey during Sino-American exchange program. Therefore, I’m writing this letter to express my gratitude for your cordial hospitality.

The details are as follows. I can never forget my first arrival when I knew nothing about America, feeling nervous across the sea away from home. Moreover, you patiently explained American customs, assisting me to overcome the culture shock soon. Most importantly, I have a deeper understanding of American culture.

Furthermore, I’d like to extend my invitation to you to come to China at your earliest convenience and assure you of a wonderful visit , just as you provided for me. Looking forward to your visit with great anticipation.

Yours sincerely, Zhang Wei
