Session 2: A COUNTRY I WOULD LIKE TO VISIT

Dear students,

Since last week you created your blogs and had little time to practise with these writing tasks, this session will help you loosen up a little and start writing more.

I. Instructions:

Today we'll discuss places, specifically, those that interest us and that we feel we'd like to visit.


Choose a town, city, or country you'd like to go to, you should write:

1. - Why you chose this place (what makes it interesting or special for you)
2. - What things you would definitely pack with you and why
3. - What you would do there

Feel free to add any info you would like to share.

First read the sample below and leave a comment about it on this post. After that, read and comment on at least 3 of your classmates' posts.
Minimum word count 170

I'd really love to visit Scotland

Most people enjoy travelling because they can relax and unwind. I myself can relax at home with my cats, so the reason I’d like to travel somewhere is entirely different. Of course, Scotland is an exquisite country because of its landscapes, but what makes Scotland special for me is rthat  I’d love to study at the University of Edinburgh. 

Truth to be said, I know very little about the country itself, but the magnificence of its landscapes plus the grace of that University’s campuses is what interests me the most.

If I went to Scotland, the three essential items to be packed would be: a pollaroid camera, because I’d like to be able to take pictures and keep them close to me immediately; a diary, to write about what I learn and what I see there everyday, and last but not least, a music player with my favourite bands.

Additionally, the activities I’d enjoy most would be to, of course, visit the Edinburgh Castle!

Additionally, the activities I’d enjoy most would be to, of course, visit the Edinburgh Castle! If I could, I’d also like to go to the Royal Botanic Garden, given that I am a big fan of all that is green. 



Finally, and logically, I’d spend most of my time here:

The University of Edinburgh library! OMG…Now, that’s a library I could live in!

:-O A girl can dream, can’t she?
