Since the first time I started to enter the museum, I couldn’t stop breathing to see a wide range of popular paintings I could only see so far from websites or photographs. Starring each of the artwork for a long time couldn’t make me realize that someone standing right next to me was a famous French female actress, Isabelle Huppert. I was extremely excited to see her and ask her to take a photo with me and my colleagues.
Overall, the journey to France was the best experience I have ever had throughout my life. Not only could I see many interesting places, but I also could meet my favorite actress.

Contoh Recount Text 1
It was exactly a year ago when my family and I travelled to Bali for a summer holiday. What really impressed me about the trip was the fact that it is the longest journey I have ever had on riding the car across the island. It took more than 24 hours driving on the road and sailing on the sea to finally arrive there. However, our tiring journey was finally paid off with the beauty of the island.

Contoh Recount Text 2
When we first arrived at a hotel in Bali during a summer holiday, we received a welcome dish, such as soda drink and some quick meals. The hotel that we booked for three days offers a beautiful sea view right at the front and a mountain sight at our back. At the next, after having one-night full of rest, in the morning we tried to enjoy some watersports, such as jet ski, banana boat, snorkeling, diving or surfing. In the evening, we enjoyed a dinner with sea food cuisine and other sea dishes. They all tasted incredibly delicious because all the food was freshly caught from the sea. My 3-day and 2-night stayvacation in the hotel was obviously memorable.
