I find it to be an amazing experience. Now my fear Of water has gone. I just actually love water now, and Im interested in English as well. Im a Bit more, lets say, a bit more confident in speaking English now, I think. Im no longer worried about my broken English. I dont care if people laugh. I just find it fun to speak English.
