Good afternoon, folks. 

And today we'll continue traveling around the world with Honey bee as a travel agent :) 

Today's stopping is in Milano, Italy. I visited this place in August, 2014 so all info in this blog is fresh and a brand-new. 

I got to Milano from Venice by train and it was around 80 euros per ticket. We got to Milano late at night so I wasn't impressed much when I saw it first. Need to say I was deadly tired after endless walkings in Venice :D 

p.s. as usual, all photos are taken by Ho

Writing prompt: similar but not same!

Believe me, I am very much scared from the snake. Hence, I like to eat snake-gourd (s). Let me say, it's one kind of green vegetables. What about over there, do you have it? And, do you like bottled water? Here, we sometimes drink bottled water otherwise we boil water at home then let it be cold and after that we drink. There is another kind of vegetables, name is bottle-gourd. It is our winter-vegetables.

You know, some vegetables are sweet, some have bitter taste and some are tasteless. During

Hi everyone, 

Have you heard the NEW EnglishClub Learning Song that Jonathan made for us? 


It would be fun to make another version of this song with the help of MyEC members. Do you have any ideas? Here are two ideas.

  • a karaoke version with MyEC members singing along
  • (Remember our version of Heal the World that Junco organized? I listened to it today and teared up a little.)
  • a version with MyEC member pictures (perhaps members could hold up a page with their country on it or their favourite thing a

There are many legends about his life but the most popular one is about his cloak, so let me tell you the

You may have learned English for years or ages, but you are still unable to speak it fluently or you still find it difficult to understand what other people are talking about on TV or radio. If you are just one of them, you should try to ask youself if you have failed to pay enough attention to the pronunciation, or if you have tried to pronounce every new word. 

I know a lot of learners of English can read and understand quite well what are written on paper, but they are weak on speaking and lis

Hi, everyone. 

I've got a countryside house where my parents live most of the time in a year so I like coming there and usually I take photos in the forest and ...yes yes, I take my basket and I gather mushrooms and berries there. It's logic that I know the names of the mushrooms in my native language but what about in English? And I started googling.....(as usual, all photos are mine). 

Need to say that I never buy mushrooms in supermarkets. The whole family of mine every summer gather a lot of m

Description of Dark Cold Night

 

 

It was a dark cold night

The beautiful moment turn into pieces,

Everything was so confusing,

My feelings were not in my influence,

I felt so very hurted

Peace moved on from sight

Everything was into a mess

The trivial things turned so big

 

It was a dark cold night

I felt so annoyed, I felt so ignored

Everything was like a hell,

Things turned upside down,

The charm of earlier period ruined in a while,

I felt so broken

I felt so detested.

 

It was a dark cold night

The trifling thing wrecked my heart,

Rage ruled
