Lesson 35

Aaron’s Blog

G’day mates! My name is Aaron and I’m 16 years old. I live in Sydney, Australia. It is always sunny here, and we have lots of beaches. Our summers are always very hot. Often, the temperature reaches 40 degrees!

Seasons in Australia are different from seasons in many other countries. Summers here go from December to February. Our winter is from June to August. Summer is my favourite season. I don’t have to wear shoes! We wear shorts and go to the sea every day. How nice it is!

On a windy day, I can ride the waves on my surfboard. Surfing is very popular here. It is difficult, but very good exercise. My mum and dad often come and watch me surf. My dad likes to bring his camera and take pictures of me. But there are always so many people on the beach. He can never get a good picture of me.

I hope to be a great surfer one day. I will work hard and practice every day.
