Dear Alan! Hello! How are you? I hope you are well. I have just returned from my school trip to Great Britain which I enjoyed a lot. First, I would like to tell you that I have visited England. I liked the journey very much because it was interesting and exciting to visit different places especially London . In London we had a sightseeing bus tour. It was wonderful to see the Houses of Parliament and Big Ben, Westminster Abbey, London Tower and Tower Bridge, Buckingham Palace, Trafalgar Square and Piccadilly Circus. By the way, the weather was sunny and warm enough and we had some walks along the streets in London.
Second, we lived in a comfortable hotel in the centre of the city. We had a real English breakfast at a hotel and we enjoyed it. I want to add that I tasted fish and chips. It was delicious.
In conclusion, I would like to say that my trip to Great Britain was marvelous and I want to invite you to visit my country. I live in Kharkiv and my country is rich in places of interest and I plan to go to Kyiv with you. It is the capital of my country and it is situated on the picturesque banks of the river Dnieper. You can get acquainted with lots of sights of interest in Kyiv. I will show you Kyiv-Pecherska Lavra, St. Sophia Cathedral, St. Andrew Church and others. I expect you enjoy your staying in Ukraine. I’m looking forward to hearing from you.
Best wishes, Ivan.
