I like winter. It is a very beautiful season. My friends often play snowballs and make snowmen. Last year we went to Sweden. It was fine there. There were much snow. We skied, skated, played hockey. The weather wasn't(or was?) warm. The nature was beautiful and I made a lot of photos. My new friends taught me Swedish. It was a difficult language for me. Next year we will to Italy on my holidays. I hope it will warm and sunny. I believe I will I ie in the sun and swim a lot. I will make photos too because I like to make photos.
