 Yesterday I arrived here in London and I was so excited. I don’t have any problems to be in a country where I never have been because I am used to travelling. In my free-time I would like to be in a relationship with people and play football with them, because this is one of my favourite hobbies. I am going to stay here for 6 months because I need English for doing an internship. I think it’s a good advantage for my future. My friends describe me like a creative person and always be in a good mood. For my future I would like to speak the languages Spanish, English, French and Portuguese very feel.

The reason why I came here is to work in London. London is one of my favourite cities and I saw the school as an opportunity to improve my English skills. Here in the school I would like to improve my English in pronunciation, conversation, and listening. I am here since the 14^th of December. First of all I was scared and feeling alone when I arrived here but after few days I met students from the school and we became friends, which makes me so happy. A perfect day here in London is for me to spend time with my friends and having fun.

 I am here for one month because of improving my English language skills. I think learning English is the most important thing in my life because I can get advantages for my future for finding a job. My plans are to go sightseeing and play football. For the first time when I arrived I was a little afraid because I don’t know anyone. Today is my first day in school and I think that I can get some friends because they are very nice. I am here for the second time so I don’t have any problems for finding the places. London is a big city but you can go everywhere you want because of the tube. It is expensive but very useful. After one month I am going to work in IKEA in Italy.

I arrived here on Sunday and the reason why I came here is for improving my English language skills and to relax. In Italy I am a chef in a restaurant so I have lots of things to do. Afterwards I thought that coming to England for two weeks would be a new experience because I am a student and works in a restaurant in England. So I can collect experiences to work here. My hobbies are going to the gym and cooking. I studied architecture and have my bachelor but I changed to the kitchen which I have more fun. For the future I would like to learn French & Spanish very fell because I like their accent.
