1. I think, the good things about Class Afloat is the learning of sailing and the practice of your English. You can also meet new people, places and cultures. The only bad thing of Class Afloat is that you could suffer of sea sickness.

2. I’d like to study in Class Afloat because I like travelling around the world and I think this experience could empower you a lot.

When I was a child, I did an homestay during the summer

I didn’t enjoy museum tours because I think they’re boring

Now I don’t have much free time

Last summer I went to a cultural events in Aquileia, the Aquileia Film Festival

Last summer, I did lots of water sports, like canoeing and kayaking
