Mauricio's submission: Average Rating:
The last time I went on a vacation was in December of the last year.
I went to La zona cafetera. It is a wonderful place. I went by car with friends of mine. I enjoyed the trip. We spent two weeks in travelling.
We were first in Quindio which is a wonderful region with beauty landscapes and of course the most pretty women I have known.Then we were in Pereira and finally we were in Manizales and I could see the snow covered mountain called El nevado del Ruiz.
We danced and ate delicious typical food.
I really enjoyed this trip.
Thanks for correcting me.

    Hi Mauricio,

    You are doing really well.   dbate4life has corrected it and although I would probably write it the way they have written it, I think that some of the corrections are not essential. It definitely needs some capital letters and punctuation.

    The last sentence is not necessary, that is what we are here for.

    I think my corrections are self explanatory. A very good job, Mauricio.

    ...beautiful landscapes

    ... and of course, the prettiest women I have ever seen.

    Then, we went to Pereira, and finally, to Manizales where I could see ...

    ...topical food.

    Excellent!!

    I see that I am too late again, I'm always sleeping when you ask for my comments!!

    What you have written is perfectly clear -without any amendments at all - and you have already received great advice.

     I am just going to offer an English perspective on two things:

    In England we say we went on holiday rather than vacation.

    and....

    If we say "we have known a woman" it can mean ....mmmm not sure how to say this!

    ...anyway, we would usually say "The prettiest women I have ever seen"  or   "The prettiest women I have ever met"

    (Of course if it was a great holiday - maybe you did mean - you have known all these gorgeous women!)  J  ;)
