Hi, my names Ricardo. Im Brazilian and Im learning English to get a better job. Im
interested in developing my listening and vocabulary skills.

Last weekend, my husband and I went on a day trip to Africa! We took a boat to Tangiers,
in Morocco.

I study twice a week at a language school and I dedicate about 2 hours a week outside
class. I love the language but I dont have time to study regularly.

We spent the day sightseeing in Tangiers. Its a small city, but very busy. While we were
exploring, my husband got lost! Luckily, we found each other again, after about half an
hour!

I plan to spend 4 or 5 hours a week outside class practicing English. I plan to do two
things to help me learn English: (1) to develop my listening skills, I plan to watch films and
TV series and (2) to expand my vocabulary, I plan to read magazines and newspapers
every month.

We spent ages in the medina (market), which was very bright and colourful. It was our
favourite place. We loved the local street food. The streets were sometimes very busy
and noisy. Also, some of the shops were quite expensive, so we didnt buy many
souvenirs.
Tangiers isnt a peaceful place, and you need a good map, but its really exciting! I
definitely recommend it.
