During the summer holiday, I was lucky enough to go to Chile（智利）in South America along with some of my schoolmates. We stayed with Chilean families there. We first met them when they visited our school before. While we were there, we visited many parts of the country, including the Atacama Desert（阿塔卡马沙漠）and Chile's capital city—Santiago. At first, it was a bit difficult to live in a house with a new family. But I fit in well and my Spanish improved quickly. My trip to the Atacama Desert was an unforgettable experience. Not only did I see some incredible scenery, but I was also able to experience some special things there. For example, I swam in Cejar Lagoon, an oasls（绿洲）. Its salty water can help you float（漂浮）more easily. At the same time, I saw wild flamingos, ate in a cafe at a height of 3,300 meters and climbed a mountain to see cave（洞穴）paintings that were created over 4,000 years ago. I don't think I will ever forget the view that I got when I watched the sunset on top of the Purple Mountains.
I also went on a trip to Santiago. It was very different from London because the buildings in London are more modern-looking. However, the President's house called La Moneda（拉莫内达宫）, is very beautiful. Santiago is surrounded by mountains. I took a cable car（缆车）to the top and got a great view of the whole city.
