On Tuesday, I had the opportunity to visit one English class and a linguistic institute. I know two students from the school and they invited me to speak to their class.
I asked them what I should prepare and they told me speak on Texas… well, I think I can do that!!! 🙂
I had a good time preparing my powerpoint presentation. I asked the students what they thought about when they think about Texas. Guess what, the students here are too different from the people north of the Mason-Dixon line… 🙂
Cowboys, horses, and cows…
Well, I should them photos of our modern cities. Texas is home to 3 of the top 9 most populous cities in the US: Houston, San Antonio and Dallas. I’m sure Dallas hates that SA has more people… too bad!
I concluded our time with our love with the pickup truck. Did you know there are over 3 million pickups in Texas??? Wow…
Anyway, I had a great time visiting the students and hope to go back in May…
You should have a western hat and boots when you promote TX!! Did you tell them about Longhorn football?
I didn’t speak too much about sports in America. The class was mostly girls… 1 guy…
I have never owned a cowboy hat or boots. Maybe need to invest in one for such occasions.
I am praying about coming to US for vacation at Christmas. Just not sure I want to do it…
Hi Joseph, I have friends in Karaganda and visited there several years ago.. I remember the big blue bank…
Glad to find your blog…
Drop me a line when you have time…
