This is my work:

Hi Chris,
You right gave me a good news, because actually the first week in August I'll be still working, therefore this change is fine, I wouldn't have been available at that time.
I guess you'll really like everything of my country, specially the food, which is absolutely delicious, indeed I'll take you to taste many kinds of dishes.
Besides, if I know you well, you'll surely love the art and culture of Italy.
Regarding clothes, you should bring with you light clothing such as t-shirts, shirts, shorts, jeans and something else. In fact the Italian summer is very hot, especially in my area. Finally, to get here from the airport, the best way is to take the highway, there you'll find numerous signs indicating my city. Though, if you have any problems, you can call me anytime.

I'm looking forward to seeing you.

Hi Italy! Here's a revised email. The tone of emails is conversational and light so I have taken out words like "Finally" and changed some other bits, though I've tried to keep your conversational tone and voice. See what you think...

[I imagine "at that time" refers to a previous message?]
