My road movie

I am a movie nut and I always think road movies are fantastic. Experiencing something new or fun through the road seems marvelous.
Last month I travelled to the North-west of China and eventually, I had my own road experience.

Before the trip, I finished my last IELTS exams and finally got Band 7. During the speaking test, I said something about travel and I used the word "breathtaking". But I just made it up. I had never seen something breathtaking before I spotted the dessert and the milky way during this trip.

 spelling: dessert should be desert (dessert is something you eat at the end of a meal)

 The dessert was way beyond description. I couldn't see the edge and sand was shining under the sun. It was a breezy sunny day, my friends and I climbed to the peak of a sand hill and slipped down the hill.

A hill of sand is a dune. (Although hill is not wrong.)

At that moment, I could hear the sound of the sand. It was a little bit like the sound of a motorbike. Although bumping in the dessert sometimes made people sick and living in the dessert was tough, the astonishing view just made everything worthwhile.

When I back home, I found that since I passed the IELTS exam, suddenly I lost all the motivation of learning to learn English, but I know if I do not practice my English like before, I will lost lose my skill soon. So I guess I need to motivate myself to practice English here more often.
