TRAVELLING

Probably nobody can imagine modern life without travelling. Now the words "tourism", "travelling" and "holidays" have the same associations. Some years ago travelling abroad was very rare and only few people could afford it, but now thanks to the travel revolution, longer holidays, bigger salaries and the change of the policy of the country more and more people visit other countries. Holidays are a wonderful chance to relax, have fun and explore new places.

There are different forms of travelling. Probably, the most comfortable is package holidays. These are holidays that are or­ganized by a travel company where the basic price includes flight, accommodation and food. Going on such holidays you can settle everything beforehand and fully relax during the holidays.

Not all people prefer during the holidays relaxation, some pre­fer activity holidays. These are holidays which involve an activity. They are fun, practical and a great way to make new friends who share your interests. These interests can include foreign languag­es, cycling, cookery, sailing and so on.

If you haven't got enough money, you can go on working_holidays. You can work on a farm picking fruit in France or Israel, or if you want to go to the USA you can work in a Summer camp for kids. There are hundreds of them all over the US every summer und many of them employ foreign students to help organize games and events. It is hard work, but you are paid and get free time at the end to travel around America.

More and more people want to experience real life when they are abroad, that is why they prefer Homestay holidays. Instead of staying in hotels, you live with a family in their own house. It is cheaper than package holidays and much more in­teresting.

But when you are going to visit some place, you must not only think where to go and what to do, you must also choose a method of travelling too. For me there is nothing like travel by air. It is more comfortable, convenient and quicker than any ether method. Some years ago you could say that with a train you had speed, comfort and pleasure combined, from a comfort­able seat of carriage you could have a splendid view of the coun­tryside. But now travelling by train brings you a headache in­stead of pleasure.

The best way to spend vacations is travelling. People can travel on foot, by car, by train, by air and by sea. I believe that vacations should be a change. Most people like a change of place. If they live in the country they like to go to a big town, if they live in a city they like a quiet vacation. When on vacation, most people don't like to do things; they have to do them all the year round.
