英文小作文：

My Perfect Holiday

I dream of a perfect holiday every year, filled with relaxation, fun and adventure. I want to lie on the beach, soaking up the sun, and swimming in the ocean. I want to explore new places and try new things. But most of all, I want to enjoy myself and make some precious memories that will last a lifetime.

To achieve this dream, I plan to take a trip to a tropical beach destination that is known for its beautiful beaches and crystal clear waters. I will pack my swimsuit, sunscreen, and a book to read under the sunshade, and I will also bring my camera to capture the memories of this unforgettable trip.

On my journey, I will meet new people and make new friends, and I will try local food and drinks that are unique to this destination. I will also participate in activities like snorkeling and scuba diving, which will give me the opportunity to see underwater wonders up close and personal.

At the end of my trip, I will come back home exhausted but fulfilled, with memories that will last a lifetime and a renewed sense of adventure for my next adventure-filled holiday. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday filled with fun, relaxation and adventure!
