The state of travel to Japan. Should business travellers return?
Here I am, again. Now I suggest writing about the business travellers in Japan. I have found an interview on the Internet about it, and I think it's an important theme to talk about in English. You can read the interview here.
You don't have to write a long text, just some lines or words, for example 120 words. Just try it. It could be very funny and interesting to write here in English. Don't worry too much about mistakes, they will disappear as long as you write in English.
See you,

Everybody knows what happened in Japan some days ago and how horrible it is for Japanese people despite the fact the Japanese society was used to living with earthquakes.
Japan has been a very famous tourist destination; so, let’s write here about the recommendations for people who want to travel to earthquake-prone regions.
You can read something about it first and then write you own essay.

Can the smoking ban affect tourism?
Hello.
As everybody knows, the Spanish government, like others in Europe, passed a new smoking ban a few months ago, and we could write here about the advantages and disadvantages of this related to tourism. Can this ban affect tourism?
Come on, write here in English about the possible consequences of this measure. I don't want you to write about Politics, just to write about advantages or disadvantages. Here you can read about this law on the Internet.

Complaint letters

Hi everybody,
I'm Ana Vázquez, one of the TAR (Tutoras de Apoyo en Red). The ED (Equipo Docente) and the TARs (Ann and I) have decided to create this blog so that you can write in English. We know how difficult it is for a student to write in a language different from their own; however it's very important to try to do it.
So, let's start to write in English. So, this time I suggest writing a complaint letter. In the PDF file, in the forum of unit 1, you can find some information about complaint letters, the structure, so now, try to write one. The ED and the TARs are going to correct you, but we also think that it's very important you try to correct your own mates; it's collaborative writing and learning.
Come on and try it. It could be funny.
