Travelling by public or own transport Thousands of people travel every day. To prove it, I invite you
to a railway or a bus station, a port or an airport. There you will
see thousands of people trying to catch a train, a bus, a ship or a
plane. Everybody wants to go somewhere and to get there as
quickly as possible, with all conveniences and safely.
Of course, travelling by plane is the fastest, but it is also the
most expensive. That's why if people have time they go by train.
It is one of the most popular means of travelling. Trains go
slower than planes, but you can see much more interesting
places of the country you are travelling through. Modern trains
are very comfortable and you can enjoy even the longest
journey.
Travelling by sea is popular mostly for pleasure trips. Onboard
large ships and small river boats people can visit foreign
countries and different places of interest within their own
country. A trip by sea is usually called a voyage or a cruise.
Buses also can take you to any place you wish. It can be a trip
not far from your home or a long journey even to a foreign
country. Modern buses have comfortable seats, video and phone,
you can have hot tea or coffee, drinks and snack. Tourist groups
usually use buses to visit foreign countries and different places
of interest.
Many people prefer travelling by car. They don't have to buy
tickets. They don't have to carry heavy luggage. They can stop
wherever they wish and spend as much time as they like at any
place.
But some people like spending their holidays travelling on foot
or by bike.
If you feel like travelling by plane, by train or by bus, you have
to choose a flight or a line, to go to a ticket office and buy a
single or a return ticket. Sometimes you have to change trains or
buses. But usually travellers prefer tickets for through trains or
buses. Then you take your luggage and try not to miss your
plane, train or bus. They usually arrive at the airport or the
railway station in time. And your wonderful journey begins.
Have a nice journey.
As for me, I have never travelled far from my home. I and my
family usually spend holidays at my Granny's in the country.
But last year we went to the seaside. It was so exciting. I hope,
next year I shall visit London. It'll be great.
