My hobby is travelling.
Modern life is impossible without travelling. Millions of people all over the world spend their holidays travelling. I travel to see other countries and continents, modern cities and the ruins of ancient towns, I travel to enjoy picturesque places or just for a change of scene.It is always interesting to discover new things, to see different ways of life, to meet different people, to try different food, to listen to different music.
I like to travel by train. I can always see the country side around me.
We have a car and I like to travel by car too. We can stop whenever we like. We start from our frond door and take any road we like.
I like hiking too. Walking through the wood or along the river, having a rest on the shore of the forest lake, climbing a mountain. I can feel myself as a part of nature. What a great experience!
When I travel I can see and learn a lot of things that I can never see or learn at home.
