Heart of language and culture
It's hard to believe that a teacher of English has never been to an English speaking country. Well, I'm a teacher of English who's never travelled abroad, but who's always wanted to visit England.
I’d like to visit it because England is the birthplace of English. Believe it or not, the English that people speak there today is quite different from the English that was spoken long ago. If you were to read Geoffrey Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, the first bestseller in the English language, someone would have to explain to you what many words mean.
Another important reason why I'd like to visit it is because I consider this country's contributions to literature and music important. It's hard to imagine what my teenage years would have been like without J.K. Rowling's Harry Potter, or English performers such as The Beatles.
If I go there someday, the first thing I’ll do is to explore London, since this city is full of monuments, historic buildings and other interesting sights such as The Tower of London.
Second, I’ll travel around the country and visit other remarkable places like Stonehenge, Britain's most famous prehistoric monument, or the Cotswolds, a popular tourist area, famous for its beautiful scenery and pretty towns. I’d love to stay there for a long time, maybe a year, so that I could meet people and know more about their culture.
Well, I hope that one day my dream and also yours come true.
London reminds me of Parent Trap ´cause they visited the city when they change life, it is beautifull. And i also like the books and the movies of Harry Potter. wich is your favourite?, mine is The prisoner of Azcaban
ResponderEliminarThe Chamber of Secrets, The Prisoner of Azkaban, The Goblet of Fire, The Order of the Phoenix, The Half-Blood Prince and The Deathly Hallows are my favorite XD I like the way the story becomes darker...
EliminarExtraordinary, i was stunished by the two final pictures, it's so beautiful! I also was fan of Harry Potter when i was litle, so i also had the dream of knowing some places of England. I also like the language and how the english people pronounce it.
ResponderEliminarGreat, for my part, I'm struck by its culture and how its people interact with the monarchy to this day, it's interesting.
ResponderEliminarI find interesting the country you want to visit, the best thing is that if you have the opportunity to travel you will be able to go to other countries.
ResponderEliminarIf someday i go to London it would be because of the beatles too, and obviusly take a picture in the Abbey Road street or go to the building where the beatles did a concert in a rooftop.
ResponderEliminari have always believe that is a beautifull countri, but all people i know say what the England people are cold. That is very rare.
ResponderEliminarWhen I was a teenager I also wanted to visit England because I was a Beatles fan, it is a very nice place and it is still one of the countries I want to visit.
ResponderEliminarTHE LANDSCAPE LOOKS VERY BEAUTIFUL!!!! i would like to visit there as well.
