Paragraph

Hello,

Does anyone can check problems in my paragraph, please?

As a child, I thought that when I slept at my cousin house, it was a game. Now, as an adult, I know that day was not only a game; nevertheless, that day was an adventure.

I would make a couple of corrections: First, you need the possessive (cousin's). Second, you need to complete the comparison correctly (Not only/ but also). As a child, I thought that when I slept at my cousin's house, it was a game.

Very well, then say:

As a child, I thought that when I slept at my cousin's house, it was a game. Now, as an adult, I know that day was indeed a game; nevertheless, it was also an adventure.

Does that work for you?
