Canada is the world’s second largest country. It is located to the north of the USA and stretches across six time zones. Canada has got a population of approximately 32 million that consists of many different nationalities: there is an English-speaking majority but there is also a large French speaking minority in Quebec.
The climate is varied: the north has got a polar climate, but on the Pacific coast around Vancouver there are warm winters, where temperatures rarely fall below zero. There are many attractions for tourists. Canada has got some of the most spectacular scenery in the world. There are mountains, great plains, and many rivers, along which most of the big cities are located. There are lots of things for twenty million visitors a year who come to Canada to do.

Hi Julie.
Well, here I am in Australia. We stay in Sydney at the moment, which is located in the south- east. It’s just great! There are so many things to do. It has got night-clubs, restaurants, and there are some fascinating tourist attractions. I took a group to the Sydney Harbour Bridge today, which was fantastic, because you could enjoy some great views. I’ve got a great group- they were enjoying the trip, and I think they like me as well. Tomorrow we are flying to Alice Springs and then to Ayers Rock, which is lying in the centre of Australia. The weather is very hot there. You can do so much in this wonderful country. Our brochure is right. Australia offers everything under the sun!
Bye, Angela
