El primer lugar de Colombia que visité fue el centro de la ciudad de Bogotá. Allí bebí los mejores tragos, caminé en las principales calles y aprendí nuevas culturas. El segundo lugar que visité fue la Isla de San Andrés. En la playa nadé y exploré algunos lugares asombrosos.

En Colombia estuve 5 días. Luego, visité Venezuela. El primer lugar de Venezuela que visité fue la Isla Margarita en donde buceé con delfines e hice caminatas nocturnas. El segundo lugar que visité fue Maracaibo. Allí, manejé un auto por la ciudad y en las noches escribía sobre mi día.

Este viaje a estos dos países en los que conocí a diferentes personas y realicé diferentes actividades, me ayudaron a entender mejor la forma de vida de las personas de otros países. Espero volver a visitarlos.

The transaltion of the text is:

Last month I went to interesting places in Colombia and Venezuela. There I was able to tour historical places and do different activities.

The first place in Colombia that I visited was the center of the city of Bogotá. There I drank the best drinks, walked on the main streets and learned new cultures. The second place I visited was San Andres Island. On the beach I swam and explored some amazing places.

In Colombia I stayed 5 days. Then, I visited Venezuela. The first place in Venezuela that I visited was Margarita Island where I dived with dolphins and did night walks. The second place I visited was Maracaibo. There, I drove a car through the city and in the evenings I wrote about my day.

This trip to these two countries where I met different people and did different activities, helped me to better understand the way of life of people from other countries. I hope to visit you again.
