Most people love travelling. Some people prefer exotic countries, others like the European (EUROPE) capitals with their famous museums, galleries and historical monuments. However, to travel does not always mean to go far away. There are lots of fantastic (FANTASY) places in our own countries and even in our own regions! As for the means of transport, planes are the fastest and the most comfortable (COMFORT) but they don’t suit everyone. There are people who are afraid of flying. Another factor against planes is that the tickets are very expensive (EXPENSE) and not everyone can afford them. There are lots of passengers who definitely prefer trains for their safety (SAFE) and reasonable prices. Trains are also better for the environment. Planes, unfortunately, produce gases that are very ___harmful (HARM) to the atmosphere of the planet.
Some
people go on holiday in their own country with 1 their family
or friends, and spend time on beaches or sightseeing in cities.
They’re more interested in relaxing than doing anything else.
However, there are some people who love to travel all 2the
time. They give up their normal lives and have adventures such
3as going to Australia for a year, or travelling around Africa.
If they run out of money, 4they find
work in bars and restaurants, or they teach English to local
people. They don’t care about having careers at home or earning
lots 5of money. They only want 6to have the experience
of travelling.
So why do people
love travelling so 7much ? If you’re travelling alone, it’s 8a
great way to meet new and interesting people. You can learn
9about different cultures, eat new food and practise a new
language. More 10than anything, travel gives you memories
that you have forever.
