Exploring London's Hyde Park - Outside English Lesson
Join me on a trip around London’s Hyde Park, exploring the beautiful area while getting some listening and vocabulary practice. Hyde Park is one of the largest parks in London and is right in the centre, so it’s a perfect place to go when the city gets a bit too much for you. I was actually quite exhausted while filming this, so I hope it doesn’t come across too much and you can learn something new here.
