 Millions people all over the world like travelling. They travel to see
other countries and continents, modern cities and the ruins of ancient
towns, they travel to enjoy picturesque places or to learn about other
cultures. It's always interesting to discover new things and different
ways of life, to meet different people, to try different food, to listen to
different music.
People who live in the country side often like to go to a big city in
order to visit museums and art galleries, things they don't have at
their hometown. They like to buy in elegant shops and to dine at
exotic restaurants. People from the city often like a quiet holiday by
the sea or in the mountains where they can sunbath or walk. Many
tourists love taking photographs of everything that interest 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.

People travel by train, by plane, by ship or boat and by car. All means of travel have their advantages and
disadvantages. And people choose one according to their plans and preferences. The fastest way of
travelling - is travelling by plane, but the most comfortable is travelling by ship and the cheapest is
travelling on foot.

If we like travelling, 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 the people is to meet them in their
own homes.
