MY LAST SUMMER

Greetings
Hi, good morning everyone. My name is Albert and I’m fourteen.

Introduce your talk
Today, I’m going to talk about “my last summer”.

General explanation
First, I’m going to explain my English holidays in Britain. Then, I’m going to talk about my family holidays in different regions from Africa. I did a safari.

Main body
Some of you have gone to England this summer.
-Exactly I went to Bournemouth, small city near London. There, you can learn and you can have fun too. There you can know new people from different countries: Turkish, France, and Italia…

- In August, I went with my family to Africa. We stayed in different villages from Kenya. I did a safari. First I visited Ambos Eli, there I saw many different animals: elephants, lions, zebras, hyenas, buffalo,… Then I went to Nakuru Lake, in this place I could see leopards and a different species of birds. It was amazing! After I went to Masai Mara, it’s a natural reserve, in the same region of Serengeti. I saw a lot of giraffes and some lions. Finally I went to an island called Zanzibar. I did relax total. Basically I sunbathe and swim in the sea. It was FANTASTIC!
