Our Trip Through The South of UK

I want to count on how was my trip along the south of UK, firstly our plans were to stay in British families' homes in order to experiment a proper inmersion cultural. I have to say that to hire spare rooms in England is a great business for British families.
The trip started in Brighton, a city at the coast with a nice pier, the piers are typical buildings in British beaches. We visited Eastbourne too.

A week later, we arrived by train to Bournemouth, a city at coast with a nice beaches, from there you can run tours by the forest in national parks by walking or cycling.

I have to recognize that they were very advanced for that period, Spain was invaded for the muslims in that period, so regrettably there were other priorities.
Finally, we went to London to remind an old travel in that city.

Living with families is a nice idea but it can have inconvenients, for example the first family in Brighton, the woman owner looked hippie, walked without shoes and really untidy, we prefer not to argue. the second family, they were vegans, a diet too much strict.

I feel confortable with the weather because it is very hot in Spain now but they prefer Spanish hot beaches and seawater on holiday, I understand it because it rains a lot of times there.


The best part of our trip for me are its countryside, always green, and their medieval places. The worst things are the food in supermarkets, due to the lack of products in comparison with Spain, the amount of fast-food restaurants and the prices, UK is a very expensive country, so you need a good salary to be able to live there reasonably well.

  1. Our Trip Through The South of THE UK

    I want to REcount [] how my trip WAS along the south of THE UK, firstly our plans were to stay in British families' homes in order to experiENCE a proper CULTURAL iMmersion. I have to say that to hire OUT(1) spare rooms in England is a great business for British families.

    The trip started in Brighton, a city at/ON the coast with a nice pier, the piers are typical buildings AT British beaches. We visited Eastbourne too.

    A week later, we arrived by train IN Bournemouth, a city ON THE coast with [] nice beaches, from there you can TAKE tours OF the forest in national parks by walking or cycling.

    One of THE things that you can do in THE UK is visiting(2) medieval places, we went to Salisbury, COINCIDENTally this year is the anniversary of the MAGNA Carta in 1215, where the British sEt OUT the DIVISION OF powers and ESTABLISHED the first WRITTEN human rights. I have to recognize that they were very advanced for that period, Spain was invaded BY the Muslims in that period, so regrettably there were other priorities.

    Finally, we went to London to remind(?) an old travel in that city.

    Living with families is a nice idea but it can have inconvenienCEs, for example the first family in Brighton, the woman owner looked LIKE A hippie, walked without shoes and WAS really untidy, we prefer not to argue. The second family, they were vegans, a diet too [] strict FOR US.

    (1) I would say "rent out" here. The British form might be "hire out", but I'm not sure. "To hire a room" would be to pay money to use it, I think.
    (2) better: to visit

    Sounds great to me. And how did you do with your English?

  2. (1) they say "to hire rooms or taxis" instead of "to rent"
    it is not sometimes easy to understand because there are a lot of different accents or kind of voices including foreign English accents of People working there, but at least I feel understood when I speak. :)
