Almost all people are fond of travelling. It is very interesting to see new places, another towns and countries. People may travel either for pleasure or on business. The-re are various methods of travelling. For me there is nothing like travel by air; it is more comfortable, more convenient and, of course, far quicker than any other method. There is none of the dust and dirt of a railway or car journey, none of the trouble of changing from train to steamer and then to another train.

With a train you have speed, comfort and pleasure combined. From the comfortable seat of a railway carriage you have a splendid view of the whole country-side. If you are hungry, you can have a meal in the dining-car; and if a journey is a long one you can have a wonderful bed in a sleeper.

Travelling by ship is also very popular now. It is very pleasant to feel the deck of the ship under the feet, to see the rise and fall of the waves, to feel the fresh sea wind blowing in the face and hear the cry of the seagulls.

Many people like to travel by car. It is interesting too, because you can see many filings in a short time, you can stop when and where you like, you do not have to buy tickets or carry your suitcases.

A very popular method of travelling is hiking. It is travelling on foot. Walking tours are very interesting. Hitch-hiking is a very popular method of travelling among young people. But it is not so popular in our country as abroad.

Почти все люди любят путешествие. Очень интересно видеть новые места, другой города и страны. Люди могут путешествовать или для удовольствия или по делу. Есть различные методы путешествия. Для меня нет ничего как путешествие воздушным путем; это более удобно, более удобно и, конечно, намного более быстро чем любой другой метод. Нет ни одной из пыли и грязи железной дороги или автомобильной поездки, ни одна из неприятности измениться от поезда до парохода и затем на другой поезд.

С поездом Вы имеете скорость, комфорт и объединенное удовольствие. От удобного места железнодорожного вагона Вы имеете роскошное представление целой сельской местности. Если Вы хотите есть, Вы можете иметь пищу в вагон-ресторане; и если поездка - длинный, Вы можете иметь замечательную кровать в спящем.

Путешествие судном также очень популярно теперь. Очень приятно чувствовать палубу судна под ногами, видеть повышение и падение волн, чувствовать, что новый морской ветер дует в лице и слышит крик чаек.

Много людей любят путешествовать на машине. Это интересно также, потому что Вы можете видеть много регистрации в скором времени, Вы можете остановиться, когда и где Вы любите, Вы не должны купить билеты или нести ваши чемоданы.

Очень популярный метод путешествия путешествует пешком. Это едет пешком. Гуляющие туры очень интересны. Передвижение автостопом - очень популярный метод путешествия среди молодых людей. Но это не столь популярно в нашей стране как за границей.
