Last year I went to England to learn English at a summer camp. I studied at Cambridge, which
is famous for its beautiful university and lovely old buildings. I met some really great people
who I am efriends with now. I had a great teacher who was good fun. I had to speak English all
the time and I understand so much more now. On the way home my flight was delayed but that
was OK. I could spend longer in England!
My best holiday was when my family and I went to Croatia. We stayed on Hvar Island, which
is really beautiful. It was amazing! We all just relaxed and enjoyed spending time together! It
was my first time abroad, so I will never forget it.
A trip to Amsterdam was my best ever holiday. We saw so many interesting things: shops,
museums and galleries. We visited the Van Gogh Museum, which has the most beautiful
paintings Ive ever seen in my life. Amsterdam is a city which doesnt have many traffic jams.
Why? Everybody travels by bicycle!
Last year my Mum and I went to Troms, which is the capital of the Arctic. Its a really cool
city in Norway. Every day we travelled to quiet places near Troms and went walking in the
beautiful countryside. After a week in Norway we crossed the border into Russia to visit my
cousins who live there.

funny thing is that my friends didnt speak very much English and I dont speak any French not
before this holiday anyway!
When my mum told me we were going abroad, I was happy until I realised that this meant two weeks
without my school friends and only my parents and ten-year-old brother for company.
2) ______________________________ ! I didnt want to be with my family
3) ______________________________ so before going on holiday I bought a dictionary and some
French books and started to learn some words. I wanted to make friends my own age on holiday. And
guess what? On the first day I met Cedric and Dominique. Well, I couldnt say very much but I knew
enough to have a chat and to have fun! It was fantastic and I 4) ______________________________ .
