Model Answer

It was two years ago when I had my very first motorbike trip with my friends to the first and most ancient
village which is located in the Southern [your country]. It is an unforgettable trip that Ive ever had.

Our group had 3 people, Jack, Jenny and me. We chose to visit that village because we wanted to get
away from the hustle and bustle of the city and get off the beaten track. Moreover, because the
village is also the birthplace of my grandparent, I felt really excited to visit the village and get a closer
insight into the lifestyle of local people as well as my grandparent.

We set out for a day trip to date back to the tradition of our country really early. Im always a night owl,
not a early bird, so leaving the city at 5 a.m made me feel like I was deprived of sleep. However, I
was deliriously happy shortly after embarking on the trip to the village. This was because on the way
to get there, we admired the breathtaking landscapes which is totally different from the city we are
currently living in. After 1 hour drive, we got to the picturesque village which made me feel over the
moon. We rented some bikes to cycle around the village with a lot of small alleyways filled
with green grass. After riding a bike to the paddy field to feel the vibes of the village, we visited some
400 year old ancient house which made of mud and laterite and had a look at communal houses where the
local people gathered for festival celebration or public meeting. After that, we had lunch with many
scrumptious food which is locally and organically grown. In the afternoon, we joined a cooking class with
the villagers who were extremely friendly and clever at making traditional cakes. The highlight of the trip
to the village was going to the paddy fields to help the farmers harvest the crop. It was such an once-in-
a-lifetime experience which I really enjoyed.

That was our first motorbike trip to the outskirt of the city and first time in the countryside so we really
enjoyed every single moment there. Jenny was like a dog with two tails while Jack and I were also on
cloud nine. We relished everything in the village from the fresh air, cozy ambiance to beautiful
landscapes such as small houses or paddy fields. We very much hope that we can embark on a longer trip
to the countryside down the road if we have more spare time.
