Dear Mark,
I am glad to hear that you are coming to China soon. I'd like to give you some suggestions on how to behave properly in China.
When you come to my house, you can make a call ahead. You'd better arrive on time or 5-10 minutes later and knock at the door or ring the doorbell first. You can also take some small gifts with you, such as fruits, milk, and a book.
When you are eating with us, don't be too nervous. If you have some special likes and dislikes, don't hesitate to tell us. We'll feel happy if you like the food we prepare.
Before you go outside, make sure to tell us, so we can find you easily. If you are leaving, you'd better accept the gift from us and show your happiness and thanks.
A safe trip to you and I hope to meet you soon!
Best wishes,
Li Hua

中国人闲聊时喜欢谈论各自的工作和家庭,很少谈到天气;

参考范文
David,
I'm glad to receive your e-mail. And I'd love to reply to your questions. In general, Chinese people are very careful with strangers. Usually we won't talk to strangers first. During small talk, Chinese people like to talk about jobs and families, but hardly talk about the weather. And Chinese people are kind of shy. We won't introduce ourselves to the other person first. Instead, we will wait for other friends to introduce ourselves to strangers. All these are different from those in your country, aren't they
I hope you can tell me more about your culture.
