Hello! Today, I visited Gold Coast! The sand there was beautiful and white unlike that of Japan, and I was very excited.

I had a great time playing beach volleyball with my host family.

Afterward, I enjoyed listening to the relaxing sound of the waves while indulging in potato chips and cola.

I really love Gold Coast and would like to stay in Australia longer!
