Answer B:
I prefer traveling abroad when I’m on vacation. I like traveling to famous countries. I have been to
France, Japan, China, and Australia. I usually travel alone when abroad. I visit famous landmarks.
I’ve seen the Eiffel Tower, Tokyo Tower, the Great Wall of China, and the Sydney Opera House. I
also spend time with inhabitants from other countries. By living with them, I get the opportunity to
understand a little about their culture and way of life. One time, I went to Japan and learned about
their way of respect to elders and manners when eating. It was a great learning experience.
When I got home, I had so much to tell to my friends. Then, we planned on going on a trip there
together. I really love traveling abroad because it makes me open my mind to their culture and
share my own culture to them as well.
