Describing an experience
Describe a positive experience that you had as a teenager. You should say
what the positive experience was
where you were
who you were with
and explain why you found the experience positive.
I’m going to describe the first time I visited England’s
capital city, London, on a
school trip when I was a teenager. I had never been to London before, and it
was great to share that experience with my school friends. The
positive
experience wasn’t confined to one particular place in London. As far as I
remember, I enjoyed the whole trip, from the coach journey to the
visits to
various tourist attractions. We got off the coach near the Houses of
Parliament, and so one of my first memories was seeing the famous ‘Big Ben’
clock tower. We also visited the Tower of London, Buckingham
Palace and
Trafalgar Square. As I said earlier, it was a school trip, and I think there were
around
thirty of us, including two teachers. I was with a group of close friends,
which made the experience more enjoyable. What really struck me about
London was that it was historic but modern and thriving at the same time. It
seemed to
me to be a lively, fashionable and cosmopolitan place. Coming from
a relatively small town, the experience made me
keen to visit more capital
cities in the future.
