Question: Describe a foreign culture or country that you would love to visit some day.
You can say: ●

• what the culture/country is
• why you want to go there
• what you will do

I’m planning on visiting the United States someday. I have always been interested in American culture. I feel lots of good things are from America: Cola-Cola, Nike, and Costo. So I want to go there. Let me start (off) by talking about why I like American culture. The biggest characteristic of the US culture is the fact that the United States is a melting pot. By that I mean we can see various kinds of cultures mixed in one country. Also, the United States is the birthplace of so many great minds and great artists, such as Mark Twain, Thomas Edison, and the Carpenters. I love their songs. What’s most exciting is, big cities like New York and Los Angeles are full of fun places and delicious American foods. Honestly, I seriously hope that pretty soon I will go to the United States and have some first-hand experiences there.
