Traveling

Millions of people all over the world spend their holidays traveling. They travel to see  other continents, modern cities and the ruins of ancient towns, they travel to enjoy  Picturesque places, or just for a change of scene. It’s always interesting to discover new  things, different ways of life, to meet different people, to try different food, to listen to  different musical rhythms.

Those who live in the country like to go to a big city and spend their time visiting museums and art galleries, looking at shop windows and dining at exotic restaurants.  City-dwellers usually like a quiet holiday by the sea or in the mountains, with nothing to  do but walk and bathe and laze in the sun.

Most travelers and holiday-makers take a camera with them and take pictures of  everything that interests them - the sights of a city, old churches and castles, views of mountains, lakes, valleys, plains, waterfalls, forests; different kinds of trees, flowers and plants, animals and birds.

Later, perhaps years later, they will be reminded by the photos of the happy time  they have had.

People travel by train, by plane, by boat, by car, by bike and on foot. People travel to have a holidays or to have business. If people have business trips they choose the fastest transport. They often travel by plane or by train. It is very expensive but it is very fast. And if people want to have a rest they choose traveling by boat, by car, on horseback and etc. When you travel by car or by bike you can stop where you want.

All means of travel have their advantages and disadvantages. And people choose  one according to their plans and destinations.  

If we are fond of traveling, we see and learn a lot of things that we can never see or learn at home, though we may read about them in books and newspapers, and see  pictures of them on TV. The best way to study geography is to travel, and the best way  to get to know and understand people is to meet them in their own homes.
