Copenhagen !

Hi there,

Well, I spent one night at in Copenhagen, Denmark on my way to Venice. I really liked how easy it was to take a train from the airport to the center of the city. My hotel was one block from the train station so that was very convenient too ! The weather was cool and it started to rain later in the afternoon. Luckily, I was able to walk around a little before the rain started ! Copenhagen seems like a very relaxed place to live. Lots of people commute to work by bike ! I only had one afternoon there but it was possible to walk everywhere from my hotel. Here are some photos of what I saw.

Listen to travel vocabulary

Good morning ! 🌞

I leave for my trip tomorrow morning and I'm not ready yet ! I'm doing laundry now. And then, I need to pack. I also need to remember to bring my passport and other important items...and take care of last-minute details at home. Why do I always leave so soon after the end of the semester ? I should wait a week so I have more time to relax before I leave...but I never do that.

Here is a good podcast you can listen to practice your English. It's about airline vocabulary. Here is the link:


Tomorrow I fly to Copenhagen, Denmark. I have never been there before. That will be exciting. I'll stay in a hotel for one night and then fly to Venice, Italy the next day. Wow, I can't believe that after months of planning this trip, I'm finally almost ready to go ! I hope everyone has a great summer !

Getting ready....





Hi there,

I am getting excited about my summer travels ! I leave this Saturday and fly to Copenhagen, Denmark. I'll spend one night there and then fly to Venice, Italy the next day. I'm really excited to see Venice, Italy. I am reading a lot about all of the famous buildings and museums there. I am looking forward to finally seeing Venice for the first time. The nickname for Venice is: La Serenissima which means "peaceful" or "serene". Here is what one blogger wrote about his travels there.

So, I will update you when I get there ! I hope everyone has a great summer and see you in August!
