A Journey to Ostrobothnia in Finland
I had´t ever seen
expanses of Ostrobothnia, so I made a journey to Oulu and back by
car. I saw large gentle landscape with open fields. It was
astonishing for me who lives in the middle of dense forests in
eastern Finland. Of course it´s very relaxing to wander in these forests, but
there isn´t any panoramic view of the coutryside.

A Holiday in London
When I was on
holiday in October I took a trip to London. There was heavy rain all
the time so I had a very good time to go shopping. When I got
home I took a long break of all the shopping.
We used to drive to Kuusamo via Oulu for winter holidays, so for me the landscape is quite familiar.

Thanks, Leena, for your homework. London is very good for shopping, I agree.
ReplyDeleteWell done for using lots of collocations. One comment: we would say "THE expanses of Ostrobothnia" - because there is only one of these in the world! :-)
large gentle landscape with open fields; dense forests; any panoramic view of the countryside;
ReplyDeleteOstrobothnia is astonishing, so beautiful fields over all the landscape.
