MY FIRST YEAR IN THE UK
Hello everyone.
Well, now I'm going to explain my experience in the UK.
I'm a cyclist and riding on the right is a bit difficult if you come from Spain. So, the first few days were difficult, especially at junctions.
I travelled around the UK (Durham, Wales, Glasgow, Portsmouth, Notts, Barrow...) for competitions(?) and we moved with a van. English motorways were stressful and slow but we played the "Eddie Stobar" game and the trip was (therefore) more fun.
Costa Coffee! Can you name me a place without a Costa? (They are) Everywhere!! For this reason, I went back to Spain addicted to the Americano. And tea, of course ;) And I discovered the porridge. Oh God, the best breakfast for an athlete.
I lived in Plymouth (Devon); (which is) such a beautiful place. I trained in Dartmoor Park or close to the sea.
Well, and the most difficult thing was the language. I improved a lot but I had some problems for understanding English people when they spoke to me because they spoke very quickly, it was definitely very hard.
Next year I'm going back to England, specifically Derbyshire. So, I will get more experience and it will be more easier.
Regards!

*Be consistent with tenses ("were" difficult, we "moved", "played", I "lived" / "trained" but then: "the most difficult thing "is" the language" <-- should be "was" as you're still talking about your "past" experience)*
I'm going back to England next year...
