Sample Answer:
I’ve always been a serial traveller, but I’ve only bought package tours from reputable tour operators and I’ve never travelled by car. Recently I’ve been obsessed with the idea of taking a tour around the continent. To me, this sounds really adventurous and exciting. So, when an opportunity turns up, I’ll start packing my suitcases right away and prepare for hitting the road.
In my opinion, it should last for about a month or two as, otherwise, I won’t manage to visit many places. However, I don’t want to think of any time limits. You know, if I get this inner feeling that my curiosity is filled up with enough impressions and knowledge, I’ll go back home to share my new experience with my family and friends.
I believe a car trip is best for me as I’d like to get off the beaten track and travel to some unknown spots. Just imagine how independent I’ll become. I will stop whenever and wherever I want, for example, if it’s an amazing sight or just want to stretch my legs or buy. something. Also, I’ll take nearly as much luggage as | want. Maybe I won’t be able to take my entire wardrobe with me, but in any case I’ll take much more than I’ve taken so far. One more important benefit is that I’ll be able to buy as many souvenirs as I want, even fragile ones, and won’t have to worry about breaking them.
As I’ve said before, I would try to avoid popular tourist holiday destinations, such as X and Y, but drive through the countryside, getting acquainted with local people and traditions. I truly believe that only by observing other people’s way of life can we understand their culture.
Without any doubt, this trip is worth doing as it u only provides me with possibilities to broaden my horizons but also charges me with positive emotions for many years ahead.
