• Places for holiday

People like to spend their holiday at different places. It depends on their hobbies, but also on the amount of money they have for their holiday. During their holiday, people can go to: 1. Hot or exotic countries - most people like to go on holiday to hot or exotic countries because there is hot weather and a sea and they can lie on the beach, sunbathe and swim in the sea. For example people like to go to Spain, Egypt, Croatia, Italy, Canary Islands and so on.

• Seeing new things

• Why do people choose different means of travel?
• Means of travelling

Forms of travel:

Means of Travelling

• Aeroplane

• Bus

It is fast,comfortable and in nowadays also cheap,so it is the best way to travel.However,there is a danger falling down the plane.Well it is up to you,how you decide...

We have modern busses equipied with television,bar or toilets.They are safer and cheaper than trains,but there are a lot of stops in towns along the way,so travelling can take longer time.

• Train

• Car

• Ship

Sitting on the train means comfort and socializing for many people.You can have some refreshments served to you directly in your compartement.If you travel at night,you can sleep in a sleeper car to get some rest through night.

The dominant form of transport in the 20th and 21st century has been undoubtely car.You can take a car and go anyway you want.Car is symbol of independence and freedom especially in America, where each member of the family has own car.

Before air travel was possible, people used to travel long distances by sea. In the first half of the twenty century, grand passanger ships made regular voyages between all the continents.

• People travel by train, by boat and by car.
• All means of travel have their advantages and disadvantages. And people choose one according to their plans and destinations.

• Motorbike

• Bicycle

Motorbike has one advantage, but many disadvantages, like a form of transport.Advantage is that you are original and well-looking with motorbike, but disadvantages are rain, snow, and motorbike can consist of only two passangers, but as you can see from the photo, it doesn‘t have to be true.... 

Large number of road users have replaced their noisy,smelly four wheelers for a much cleaner and more efficient machine – the bicycle.Countries like Netherlands or Switzerland are famous for protecting their environment and you can see thousands of bicycle in the streets.

....and one illegal type of transport is hitch-hiking... 
