What is a blogpost?

A blog post is a short text in which you write about a topic, your experiences, or your opinion.

A blog post is usually:

• personal – you write about what you think or want.

• informal – you can write in a friendly, relaxed way.

• interesting to read – give some details and explain your ideas.

Tip: Write as if you are telling a friend about your plans for Paris!

My trip to Paris

I am really excited about our trip to Paris on 14 October. There are many things I want to see and do.

First, I definitely want to visit the Eiffel Tower. I think it is one of the most famous places in Paris and I would love to see it in real life. I also want to take some nice pictures there.

I really want to try a French croissant. I love pastries, so I think it will be delicious. Maybe I will also try some French crêpes!

In my free time, I want to walk around the city and go shopping with my friends. It would be fun to explore the streets and visit some shops.

I am really looking forward to the trip!
