Pablo_R's submission: Average Rating:
Last month there was a holiday in my country so I went out of city to the country. This place was in the middle of Andean Mountains about two hours going North from where I live. I rent a small house to past the night. Outside the house there were colorful gardens with native flowers and trees. At night the sky was perfect full of stars. It was a great place to get some peace of noisy city living way.

    Hola Pablo,

    I will do sentence by sentence for you and hope that helps you see where your small mistakes are being made.  Overall you do an excellent job.

    Sentence 1:  Last month there was a holiday in my country so I went out of the city to the country.

    Sentence 2: This place was in the middle of the Andean Mountains about two hours North of where I live.

    Sentence 3: I rented a small house to spend the night.

    Sentence 4: Perfeccione!  WOO HOO! <- That is an English celebratory expression. 

    Sentence 5: At night the sky was perfect; full of stars.

    Sentence 6: It was a great place to go and get some peace away from noisy city living. 

     

    Good Job Pablo, I think that soon you will be writing just like a native English speaker.  Espero que usted tenga un fin de semana maravilloso. ¿Es esto un fin de semana cuando usted juega al fútbol? Si ése es el caso entonces buena suerte con su juego. Take good care of yourself.
