out of place / classmates / lose touch with / keeping in touch / neighbours / put / took place / quiet placeI really liked living in Vancouver and studying at VGC. What an amazing experience. I am {{{keeping in touch}}} with many new friends from around the world. I do this with Facebook because it’s so easy. I write to my new friends who used to be my {{{classmates}}} in Level 4. I also hope I don’t {{{lose touch with}}} my wonderful homestay family. I even made friends with their {{{neighbours}}}! I lived in a great part of the city. I never felt {{{out of place}}} at school or at home. At school, one of my favourite activities was conversation pub which {{{took place}}} twice a month. I really practiced my English outside of school! I promise to {{{put}}} more photos on my webpage soon.
