=====================================

Hello. I’m Nick. I’m from California. I like hiking up mountains. California has many mountains. But California is a desert, so it is very dry. It doesn’t have many trees in the mountains, so it’s very different from Japan. But it has many coyotes, snakes, rabbits, and flowers! You can enjoy the flowers in Spring! They smell very sweet. Do you like the mountains?
