Hi Lourdes!

I will explain you my summer because I think that you know me enough.

This summer I traveled to Canada. On the 3^rd of July I took a plane from Barcelona to Toronto and then another to Ottawa. The plane was very late and we arrived at 1am at Ottawa’s Airport but we had to arrive at 8pm. I was staying there with a Jamaican family. From Monday to Friday, from 9am to 4pm I went to NSL Camps from National School of Languages at Elmwood School. There we had classes from 9am to 12:30pm and activities from 1:30pm to 4pm. The classes were very interestings, we red a book called Saving Private Ryan and at the end we saw the film, we did like 4 or 5 debates, we did grammar and vocabulary, and every one at class had to choose 2 topics to talk about and then we had to do a 30 minutes oral presentation. Every day to begin the class the teacher gave us a paper to do a writing. At the end of the month we did de “graduation” and the head teacher gave us a certificate. On Saturdays we did excursions, we visited Montreal, the Niagara Falls, the aboriginal people, we did a barbecue and the last Saturday we went to a water park called Calypso. At the Camps there were people from around the world, there were people from Hungary, Russia, Colombia, South Arabia, Japan, China, Spain…

On the 30^th we leave Ottawa and we arrived in Barcelona on the 31^st.

During my stay in Canada my fluency had improved a lot and my vocabulary too.
