Dear Asha,

I hope this letter finds you happy and hearty! It's been a long time since we exchanged letters. So today, I got to write quite a few important things. From the time I heard that you were about to head to London for your higher studies, I have been planning to buy you a gift. After much thought, I came up with a unique item, not the usual books, pens, etc. As it is, you are already busy with studies and assignments. I want to give you something which will allow you to relax and be happy. I decided to buy a Fujifilm Instax camera for you. It comes with film sheets, and you can get Polaroid pictures instantly. It also has a selfie mode and is easy to carry and use. With this, you can click artsy and beautiful snaps of beautiful locations and yourself. You can prepare cute diaries and boards with the pictures and look them up as and when you wish.

Do let me know if you love my idea, and then I will place the order so I can meet you with your gift! Meet you soon

Your Lovingly,
Sneha
