Hello !! Today I will write about nature. I love nature and I like to travel and camp. In fact I do it several times a year. I’m scout girl so we go to camping with all the group during the year. We have two long camp in January for ten days and July for seven days for the Winter holidays. Also we have short camps with the bigger girls in May for the weekend of 21 and October in halloween weekend. It is very important for me to go out from Santiago constantly because I don´t really like it. Crowd pollution and noise isn’t for me.
