If you ever decide to travel to California, I promise you that you will have the adventure of a lifetime. From the iconic cities to the diverse landscape, everything I have recently witnessed firsthand was incredible.
I set off on my way to California, the Golden State, one week ago. On my last evening here, while enjoying the unique sunset on the deck of my host brother, I want to take the opportunity to report about my memorable experiences here.
My host family resides in San Francisco, consisting of two parents, my pen pal Max, and the little girl Francisca. Except for the strange little girl, the host family was very hospitable and gave me the chance to savor the beauty of California.
My initial days in the Golden State were spent in San Francisco. My host family had a nice house with a big garden. The first few days we tried to get to know each other, they introduced me to the game of baseball, which proved to be quite enjoyable, and I have settled in very fast.
On the third day, to bike it up across the bridge. The view was breathtaking, and the bridge was unimaginably long. I think it took us a good 45 minutes just to reach the middle, where we paused to capture the moment with some photos
However, after we finished, it was almost dusk, so we decided to visit the city center of San Francisco. The things I liked the most were these tall buildings and all the lights that came from everywhere, so I highly suggest you visit it in the evening.
The following day we drove further afield to the Sequoia National Park, renowned due to its impressive giant sequoias, some of which are over 3,000 years old. It was fascinating, and I even saw a baby fox that seemed to be was very scared of us. There we camped for two nights. Camping with my host family was an amazing experience! Each evening, we gathered around the campfire, sharing songs, stories, and laughter. The serene atmosphere was heightened by the gentle crackling of the flames and the occasional visit from curious animals. It was a truly magical and unforgettable time we spent in those relaxing nature retreats. I would definitely make it to an obligation to visit this place for touristts.
Subsequently, we made our way to Los Angeles, the glamorous Hollywood city. My host father was eager to share with me the real-life gaze of the Hollywood lettering, so on our way to there, we stopped at those letters and took a lot of photos. It wasn't any different from the photos I have seen before on the Internet, but it was still a nice experience. Our holiday flat was in the center of downtown, which was a big advantage because we were surrounded by countless sights and attractions. Not even 10 kilometers away was the famous Walk of Fame. It was quite interesting. People of all shapes and sizes were there, but regrettably no celebrities. Despite that, it was very beautiful there, and I enjoyed it. After a while, as we drove back, the family insisted on showing me the other side of California on my final days, while driving through the Skid Row. It was a neighborhood full of poverty and crime, with both drug addicts and dealers. It was wretched and sad to see how even minors have to live under such conditions. The next day we drove back to San Francisco
As I bid farewell to my host family and prepare to depart, I carry with me gratitude and the longing to return to this impressive land of sun, sights, and city streets, where every moment feels like an adventure. Until next time, your Maria!
Danke isohypse für deine ausführliche Antwort.
Mir scheint die Aufgabe im Buch auch mysteriös. Ich habe eine wichtige Information vergessen zu erwähnen, nämmlich die Lösung die am Ende des Buches steht, ohne Lösungsweg:
