Сочинение "Travelling" (why popular? transport)

I think it is impossible to live in our modern word without travelling because there are many interesting places to visit and see. Railway and bus stations, airports and seaport are busier in summer than in other seasons of a year because of school holidays. Travelling is the best way of spending holidays because you can visit different interesting places in your country and abroad. I prefer to travel by train because I like to look out of the window and watch the nature and a lot of small towns and villages.

Of course, I usually travel with my parents because I am a teenager and my parents don’t allow me to travel by myself. I have already been in Moscow, Berlin, Volgograd, Saratov. I have never been to London. It’s my dream. Seaside is better to travel in summer because you can swim and dive, sunbathe and relax. My parents and I always take a camera with us when we are going to travel because we like to take photos very much.

To my mind it is better to travel for pleasure because you may relax and don’t think about business.

Travelling

Almost all people are fond of travelling. It is very interesting to see new places, another towns and countries. People may travel either for pleasure or on business. There are various means of travelling. For me there is nothing like travel by air; it is more comfortable, more convenient and, of course, far quicker than any other means. There is none of the dust and dirt of a railway or car journey, none of the trouble of changing from train to steamer and then to another train. With a train you have speed, comfort and pleasure combined. From the comfortable seat of a railway carriage you have a splendid view of the whole countryside. If you are hungry, you can have a meal in the dining-car; and if a journey is a long one you can have a wonderful bed in a sleeper. Travelling by ship is also very popular now. It is very pleasant to feel the deck of the ship under the feet, to see the rise and fall of the waves, to feel the fresh sea wind blowing in the face and hear the cry of the seagulls. Many people like to travel by car. It is interesting too, because you can see many sights in a short time, you can stop when and where you like, you do not have to buy tickets or carry your suitcases. A very popular means of travelling is hiking. It is travelling on foot. Walking tours are very interesting. Hitch-hiking is a very popular method of travelling among young people. But it is not as popular in our country as abroad.
