I was happy to take part in the exchange programme and to go to college in Britain. An opportunity to spend two **months** in London sounded fantastic. Our teacher told us that we **lived** in a student hostel.
It was going to be **more** than staying with a host family as the hostel was very close to the college. When we arrived in London, the **first** thing we had was a bus excursion round the British capital.
Unfortunately, when we **visited** Westminster Abbey, it started to rain hard. We had to go down to the lower level of our double-decker and we **did not manage** to enjoy the wonderful sights.
Anyway, London is very impressive. People from all over the world live there. Some of **them** come as tourists, others choose this place to study or to work in. It is a dynamic multicultural city, though there **are** many historical buildings in it. Amazingly, many of the houses **were built** centuries ago!
