They say you don't get a second chance at a first impression. The same applies to letters. Your first letter is the first window through which you show your heart to the other person.

Components of a Good First Letter

Self-introduction: Start with a brief yet interesting introduction. It's good to mention your name, age, location along with one or two traits that make you special.

Sharing interests: Share your hobbies, favorite music, movies, books, etc. Common interests are a great starting point for continuing the conversation.

Asking questions: Express genuine curiosity about the other person. Questions like "What's your favorite season in your country?" naturally continue the conversation.
