Subject: Looking forward to staying with you next week!

Dear Jo,

I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to confirm my upcoming visit to your place next week. As we discussed earlier, I will be arriving on Monday, the 12th of July, at around 2 pm.

I am really excited about staying with you and experiencing the English culture firsthand. I was wondering if there is anything specific that I should bring with me for my stay? Please let me know if there are any items that I should pack or if there is anything that you think I might need during my stay.

Also, I would love to bring some food with me as a gesture of appreciation for your hospitality. Is there anything in particular that you would like me to bring? I am happy to pick up some groceries on my way to your place.

Thank you so much for welcoming me into your home. I am looking forward to catching up with you soon.

Best regards,
[Your Name]
