You are going to Mexico for two weeks in February. Your neighbour Priya lives across the street, and the two of you get along well. You need someone to check on your house while you are away, especially because of the cold weather.

Write an email to your neighbour, Priya in about 150–200 words. Your email should do the following things:

  • Tell Priya about your trip, including the dates.
  • Explain what you would like her to do.
  • Offer something in return for her help.
