LIFE EXPERIENCES

THINGS I'VE DONE



I've been to London many times. I first went there when I was 18. I worked as an au-pair on my summer holidays.
It's an exciting place but you need a lot of money to live there.


THINGS I HAVEN'T DONE




I've never jumped out of a plane. I don't think I really want to because it looks scary. Maybe one day I will when I'm brave enough.



Have you done any exciting or interesting things? Write about them.

Write about something you have always wanted to do, but haven't done yet.

USE the PresenT Perfect Simple.
