Travel is always interesting . Many people like travel . Now , let”s listen to three people talking about travel .
My name”s Jack . First of all , I don”t like traveling with a group of people , just with one or two good friends . I think it”s easier to meet new people that way . Hmm , what do I like to do when I”m on holiday ? A lot ! I like to spend each day visiting museums and interesting shopping centres … , for me , travel is a time when I do things I don”t do at home. Maybe that”s why I always come home from holidays so tired !
I guess for me the most important thing is getting away from work and from people . That means going alone-no family , not friends , no office workers . I just like to go and do my own things . What I need for a good holiday is sun and warm weather . What I don”t need on holiday is to spend every day walking around looking at old buildings , shopping , going to the parks … , no , for me , maybe a little while lying in the sun , a swim in the sea , and reading lots of books . That”s enough for me , a change of place and forgetting about work .
Well , I come from London and I travel a lot . You know , eating new foods , seeing new places . For that I like travel . The last one I took was two weeks-long enough to see quite a few places , but not so long that you get tired . What I love to do most when I travel is just walk around an old town or village on little narrow streets, meet the people there and just feel what the places are like . It isn”t shopping or visiting museums but learning something about a different way of life . They say travel is the best teacher , and I think it”s true .
