Dear Sir/Madam,
My name is Anmol and have been selected for my ‘honours’ with Oxford University. Recently, I received a letter from the university that you will be taking care of my stay in London.
I am an Indian, currently working as the ‘project lead’ with an MNC. In my family, I have my parents and a younger brother who is presently doing his ‘Masters in Technology’ from MIT.
It will be great if you could tell me about other facilities apart from the accommodation, specifically regarding weather and some information about the transportation facilities especially during odd hours i.e. 10:00 pm to 6:00 am. In addition, it will be very nice of you to inform me about various ways to commute from your place to the university. Even more how can I reach your place from the airport.
I’ll be arriving on January 23, although my course commences on January 28.
I am looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours faithfully,
Anmol.
