Cześć! Tu Kasia 🙂
Myślę o weekendzie na wsi. Znalazłam małe gospodarstwo agroturystyczne na Podkarpaciu. W opisie piszą, że jest pole, łąka i mały las obok, a rano jest super świeże powietrze. Podobno mają też zwierzęta: krowy, konie i kury.
Chcesz jechać ze mną? Możemy wybrać się w sobotę rano. Napisz, czy wolisz jechać pociągiem czy autem i czy chcesz odwiedzić zwierzęta.
Hi! It’s Kasia 🙂
I’m thinking about a weekend in the countryside. I found a small agritourism farm in Podkarpacie. In the description they write that there is a field, a meadow and a small forest next door, and in the morning there’s great fresh air. Apparently they also have animals: cows, horses and chickens.
Do you want to go with me? We can go on Saturday morning. Write back whether you prefer to go by train or by car, and whether you want to visit the animals.
Useful phrases:
-
Chętnie pojadę, bo...
(I’d love to go, because...)
-
Wolał(a)bym jechać pociągiem, ponieważ...
(I’d rather go by train, because...)
-
Gdybym miał(a) więcej czasu, to...
(If I had more time, then...)
Hi Kasia! I’d love to go to the countryside, it sounds great. I’d rather go by train, because it’s more comfortable for me to sit and I don’t have to drive. I’d like to visit the animals, especially the horses and cows. Is it possible to buy something local there, e.g. eggs from the chickens or fresh vegetables? What time are you planning to leave and where are we departing from?
