I am an adventurous person so I enjoy spending a lot of time outside, and therefore I love traveling. I believe that traveling is one of the best ways to learn new things, make new friends and increase our cultural level. Besides, I always travel with my parents, which helps me build a closer relationship with them. Our journeys are usually funny and interesting, as we always chose new places to visit. We've already seen a lot of places, but I think there can never be too much trips in our lives. We often choose to travel by car, as we can admire a lot more places in this way. However I love trains and planes just as much. To sum up, I am a convinced traveller as I enjoy discovering our world and I will never miss a chance to go visit a new place.
