1 . I am on holiday here in Switzerland with my parents and I am having a fantastic time.     1     It is the first time I have ever been to the mountains and I love it.     2     My father isn’t very happy though. He isn’t allowed to smoke in the hotel so he has to go outside!

We have been on lots of walks in the mountains but we always go with a guide.     3     You can easily get lost—it’s so remote.

Yesterday we went for a boat trip around the lake but we had to go back to the hotel early.     4     It was fun but a bit frightening.

    5     The worst thing is that I can’t go out at night. Not because my parents won’t let me but because there’s nowhere to go.
