Question
Look at the three journeys below. Then work in pairs to discuss the questions.
Answer
- Good things: all the journeys should offer great views, a chance to meet different people, and the opportunity to see and find out about other cultures; the train and car journeys would be a chance to see a range of landscapes and cover long distances; the walk would help you to keep fit, get a suntan, and be close to nature.
- On your own / in a group: some people might prefer to share the experience with people they know, but when you travel on your own you sometimes meet more people.
- Problems: the train journey would be long and tiring, and there could be problems with language, food, and at customs. The drive would be tiring, potentially dangerous, depending on road conditions and accidents; there could be problems with the car and getting lost. A long-distance walk is physically demanding, exhausting, you could get lost or have an accident.
