Traveling and Seeing the World

While traveling people know many interesting things – they strengthen and broaden their minds. For example, I was taught that in some cultures it is acceptable to say ‘No, that’s wrong.’ However, when British people correct someone, they begin with a ‘softening’ sound ‘Uh’ or ‘Uhm’, or with a phrase like ‘well, I think”, or ‘Actually’ before disagreeing with someone. It is amazing how the world is diverse.

Traveling by car you can watch much. Once my brother and I made our father reverse the car due to the unusual sight we noticed over our heads. We saw many small figures in the sky – they were jumping from the plane with parachutes. It was exciting – we had been watching them about an hour – they looked like flowers spreading everywhere in the sky. I think it is frightening to jump with a parachute but at the same time it might be interesting to see the earth with a different feeling. Then I knew that you must follow some tips while jumping – first, listen to your instructor very carefully, second, put your helmet very tightly, and third, be ready to feel freedom and happiness in the air. To my mind, it is a very dangerous sport. I prefer jogging early morning breathing fresh air in the nearest wood and swimming in the pool. Of course, each kind of sport has its own tips to follow. After seeing the parachutes I reversed my mind of men, by the way – they seemed to be courageous and risk - they could perform many important tasks. I looked at my brothers with other edge of eye thanks to parachuting. Next year we are planning to visit Colorado and try to learn climbing mountains – mountaineering is great, I guess. There are lots of interesting things in the world and I‘d like to see many of them. My parents are unique people – we are lucky to have them – we travel the world and learn so much that I decided to enter the university to geography faculty. I like nature and new people which I can get acquainted during the trip.
