Answer the next questions:

1. Do you prefer traveling alone or with a group? Why? Tell the benefits of your pick
- I prefer traveling both alone and with a group, depending on the destination and the
purpose of the trip. Traveling alone allows for more freedom and spontaneity, while
traveling with a group can be more social and enjoyable for shared experiences. Both
have their benefits: solo travel offers independence and self-discovery, while group
travel provides companionship and shared memories.

2. How do you prefer to travel? (plane, car, bus, bike...) why?

- My preferred mode of travel depends on the distance and destination. For
long-distance trips, I prefer flying for its speed and convenience. For shorter
distances and exploring local areas, I enjoy traveling by car or bike, as it
 allows for more flexibility and the opportunity to explore off-the-beaten-path
destinations.

3. Where will be your next trip? Why?

- My next trip will be to Japan. I've always been fascinated by Japanese culture,
history, and cuisine. I'm excited to explore cities like Tokyo, Kyoto, and
Osaka, visit historical landmarks such as temples and shrines, and indulge in
delicious Japanese cuisine like sushi and ramen.
