Hi Pedro,
I've got great news! In July, I'm spending a week in London, doing an English
course at a well-known English college, Royal Holloway. Here is a photo of it! The
campus looks great, doesn't it?
There are lessons almost every morning (boring!) but lots of trips too. On our first
day, on Monday, we're taking a placement test so there aren’t any lessons on that day.
After the test, we're visiting the British museum to see the Parthenon Marbles. I can't
wait! I've heard so much about them at school.
On Wednesday evening, we're going to the theatre to see 'Evita', the famous musical.
On Tuesday and Thursday, we're staying in. Lessons and
sports. Tuesday is disco night and on Thursday there's
karaoke. Cool?
Friday afternoon, we're going to Thorpe Park, a huge
amusement park full of exciting rides (jealous?). Saturday,
we're visiting Cambridge and spending the whole day there.
We're flying back home on Sunday 17.
What about your plans? Where are you going in July?
How about coming to my place in Syros in August?
Write soon!
Alex
