The visitors

Carmen

Carmen is studying English Language and Literature in the Complutense University, Madrid.  She is passionate about her subject and thinks everybody else should be passionate about English too.  She has persuaded Ana and Maria to come with her to London for a week at the end of July.  

Ana

Ana is studying physics in Madrid.  She had planned to have a week’s holiday in Berlin, but Carmen persuaded her to go to London instead.  Ana admits that English will be useful to her in her future career, so, after initial reservations, she is looking forward to the trip.

Maria

Maria is studying medicine in Madrid.  She had planned to go on holiday to Granada, but Carmen and Ana persuaded her to go with them to London.  She agreed very reluctantly and is far from convinced that she made the right decision.
