This week, I'm on holiday [US: vacation] and I'm staying home, but I'm not going to get bored! On Monday, I'm going to visit a museum with my brother and my sister-in-law. On Wednesday, I'm taking a baking class to learn how to make macarons. On Friday, I'm going to the hairdresser with my best friends Léa and Adeline. And the rest of the time, I'm going to relax at home. I'm super happy!
