Listening. Traveling.
Every night I try to practice my English listening skills for a few minutes. Listening is by far my weakest skill, and it is very difficult for me to improve because I am not patient enough to calm down and listen to a podcast for 10 minutes. I have found a good method in dictation. With dictation, I can practice my listening skills while I keep my hands busy. However, sometimes I am too tired to sit on my computer, and typing with my phone against the gravity is very exhausting!
I am planning a couple of trips to the USA for the next year with my girlfriend. We want to go to Utah to see the dinosaurs museums and walk a lot amidst the mountains. Maybe I could go in winter to try winter sports. We also want to go to Universal Orlando to see the Harry Potter park, but we would like to know more about the city because we don't want to spend the whole week in theme parks!

Very well written, Alfredo. As you can see from Sheilagh's comments, there is not much to correct here. Your use of "amidst" is fine. However, you may not know that it is not commonly used in conversation. It is a bit antiquated, or poetic, which I like, but most people would just say, "walk a lot in the mountains".
