I'd like to go to Australia. I really like this country because it is very exotic. There are many unusual animals and plants which you can meet only in Australia. I know that in Australia there are many interesting and special things - the Great Barrier Reef archipelago, the Blue Mountains, the luxurious beaches, the unique building of the Opera House in Sydney, the stunning Harbor Bridge, the Kunguroo and the koala, etc. All of this I really want to see. But the main thing I want to enjoy the Australian landscapes and find out what they are - sunsets - on the other side of the Earth. The climate is hot. Sidney is the capital of Australia and it is famous worldwide for it's opera. The nature is actually impressive. I'd like to go to the beach and surf.

Я бы хотел поехать в Австралию. Я действительно люблю эту страну, потому что она очень экзотичная. Там есть много необычных животных и растений, которых вы можете встретить только в Австралии. Я знаю, что в Австралии есть много всего интересного и особенного — архипелаги Большого Барьерного Рифа, Голубые горы, роскошные пляжи, уникальное здание Оперного театра в Сиднее, потрясающий по своей красоте мост Харбор Бридж, кенгуру и коалы и т.д. Все это мне очень хочется увидеть. Но главное мне хочется насладиться австралийскими пейзажами и узнать, какие они — закаты — на другом краю Земли. Климат жаркий. Сидней - это столица Австралии, и он знаменит по всему миру своей оперой. Природа действительно впечатляющая. Я бы хотел пойти на пляж и заняться серфингом.
