MY TRAVEL EXPERIENCE
VOCABULARY:
Tolú, Coveñas, beaches, islands,
Caribbean Sea, nature, sunsets.
ARTICLE:
Last year, I traveled to
Tolú and Coveñas with some friends. It was one of the most amazing experiences
of my life. We stayed in a small hostel near the beach, surrounded by a
peaceful atmosphere and lots of nature. During the day, we walked along the
boardwalk, enjoyed the warm sea, and spent time relaxing on the sand. At night,
we listened to traditional coastal music and tried delicious food such as fried
fish, coconut rice, and patacones.
The highlight of the trip was a boat tour to the nearby islands. The water was crystal clear, and we spent hours swimming and resting on the beach. I remember watching the sunset from the shore; it was breathtaking, and I felt very happy and grateful. That trip gave me unforgettable memories and made my friendship with the people I went with even stronger.
