Compasses that seek lost smiles

I’d like to recommend a book which I read some time ago, called Compasses that seek lost smiles (Brúixoles que busquen somriures perduts). The author of the book is Albert Espinosa.

The book is a family drama, the main characters are a man called Ekaitz, his father, his two daughters and his sister-in-law.

I liked this book because it has a strong message and in the plot doesn’t explain the main theme but it tells the messages that the book tells in a different way. 

All in all, I really like the novel, although it hasn’t got a happy ending but it’s amazing and I wouldn’t change anything of it. 

 

Travelling around the world

Hi everybody, my name is Núria Fusellas, and now I’m going to talk about travelling around the world.

Do you like travel? Where do you want to go?

Well, many people want to travel around the world for visit new places and meet their costumes, and also the gastronomy and the most famous places are America, here Europe and probably Asia.

When I was little, I travel around Europe. I visited England, London; Greece, Athens; Slovenia, Ljubljana; etc. I think the best trip I’ve had was when I went to Canary Islands. I was young, about 5 years old so I don’t remember very much. I went there by airplane and now I hate it.

I ever want to travel the world; I would like to travel to Australia because there are many activities to do like diving, surfing. Also you can visit many famous places or visit the famous animals in Australia, the koala and the kangaroo.

Also I want to travel to Canada because is a very peaceful place and it has got many types of animals and plants and I love that, in the winter you can do all the winter sports like snowboarding, skiing, curling,… and in the summer you can go to camping, or kayaking,…

My last summer

Hello, I’m Núria and now I’m going to talk about my last summer:

In June I went to an English camp, Rosa dels Vents. I stayed there for five days, and I met a lot of people around Catalonia. There we did a lot of activities like horse riding, zip line, archery or swimming. I did a lot of friends so it was very exciting.

In July I stayed some weeks at home, but in Mondays and Wednesdays afternoons I went to French classes with Maria, Elisabet, Xènia and Cèlia. Finally of July I went to l'Ateneu, there I had some theatre, singing and dancing classes with my friends.

In August I went to La Rioja with my parents. We stayed there one night and the next day we travelled by car to Cantabria for five days. There we visited Santander, San Vicente de la Barquera, Santillana del Mar, Fuente Dé, etc. When we returned home we went to Pamplona and we stayed there for one night.

Finally, when we returned to Banyoles I met my friends and one weekend my family and I went to Delte de l' Ebre. There we could visit Deltebre, Sant Carles de la Rapita, el Fangar, La Banya,...

In September I didn’t do anything special. For my saint’s day I met my friends and we had a snack next to the lake. In the national day of Catalonia (11^th of September) my brother and my cousin went to Barcelona but my parents and I we went to Port de la Selva all day.
