Most people like to leave their places on holidays. Some prefer a quite rest in the country or at their dachas. Others go to the seaside and enjoy swimming and sunbathing on the golden beaches of the South. A lot of people are crazy about travelling and feel great visiting new places, getting more impressions and knowledge about them.
As for me, I prefer going to the country on holidays. Almost every summer I visit my grandparents there. This summer was not an exception. In June I stayed in the country for about a month. There I enjoyed fresh air, pleasant views of the surrounding nature. I helped my grandma and grandpa about home and in the garden. I watered plants and weeded the garden, mowed the long grass.
Besides my grandparents, I have some friends in the country. This summer we went fishing and camping together. It was fun to play ball on the grass! Also we liked lying in the sun and bathing in the river. In the evening we went boating on the lake. We went to the forest and gathered raspberries. It was a real pleasure to stay out of town!
In July I went abroad, namely, to Finland with my parents and a little sister. We were touring by car around the country, so we could see a lot of new places. I had a good time in this country!
In August I stayed in the town reading books, playing football with my friends and preparing for school.
So, I spent my holidays very well and had a good rest!

Перевод:
Большинство людей хотело бы покинуть свои места в праздники. Некоторые предпочитают спокойный отдых в деревне или на дачах. Другие едут к морю и наслаждаются купанием и загоранием на золотых пляжах юга. Многие люди без ума от путешествий и великолепно себя чувствуют, посещая новые места, получая больше впечатлений и знаний о них.
Что касается меня, я предпочитаю ехать в дереню на праздники. Почти каждое лето я проведываю своих бабушек и дедушек. Это лето было не исключением. В июне я остался в деревне почти на месяц. Там я наслаждался свежим воздухом, приятным видом на окружающую природу. Я моим бабушке и дедушке по дому и в саду. Я поливал растения и вырывал сорняки в саду, косил траву.
Кроме бабушки и дедушки, у меня есть друзья в деревне. Этим летом мы поехали на рыбалку и кемпинг вместе. Было весело играть в мяч на траве! Также нам понравилось лежать на солнце и купаться в реке. Вечером мы катались на лодке по озеру. Мы пошли в лес и собирали малину. Это было настоящее наслаждение для отдыха за городом!
В июле я уехал за границу, а именно в Финляндию с моими родителями и младшей сестрой. Мы совершали поездку на машине по всей стране, так что мы смогли увидеть много новых мест. Я хорошо провел время в этой стране!
В августе я остался в городе и провел время за чтением книг, играл в футбол со своими друзьями и готовился к школе.
Итак, я провел свои каникулы очень хорошо и хорошо отдохнул!

I had a wonderful winter vacation. I love the new year, this holiday bustle, various Christmas movies that lift the mood. 
Winter holidays began on 29 December. That day at school was new year's holiday.
We diligently prepared for this holiday. Rehearsed every day until the evening of the dance. In class we had a tea party. We brought a lot of sweet that day. Then we had a disco. I really had a good this last school day before the holidays.

Winter holidays are New year. Met a holiday the whole family. In the evening, pulled a large table and decorated a Christmas tree. In 12 hours we all went outside, where he launched fireworks and lit sparklers.

On other days I'd go out with friends, skating and skiing. Christmas Came. I went to the village to the grandmother and grandfather. There went caroling with his girlfriend. We were given a lot of candy and money. 
The holidays have ended, and I still had to do homework, we asked. The weather these days has been great. I love when it's cold and lots of snow.
I really liked these winter holidays.
