’re travelingsolo

If I am traveling solo, I think Xiamen,Lijiang,Hangzhou and Guilin are good destinations. Because inthese cities, there are beautiful scenery, many places of

interests as well as people who open doors to us. Xiamenis a pretty wonderful city, not only for its well -knownthe cleanest city inChina but also for Gulangyu Island, I canbreathe the freshair and feel the harmony betweenpeople and the nature. Also Lijiangold townis famous for its longhistory, the peaceful life and

passionate people will give me a very deep impression. Besides, Hangzhouand Guilin are good choices to travel, both of the cities have fresh air, beautiful sights, especially in Lijiang, it is also a peaceful place where I can put myself in and enjoy the sunset as well as the tranquility of life.

13．Say some funny or interesting travel experience that you have had, or that someone you know has had. Where was it? When was it? Who was there? Or what happened?

I have travelled to many places, and the most interesting travel experience was when my friend and I went to Xiamen about several months ago. It was on

the way to Gulangyu Island, the guide suggestedwe play games since it was a little boringbecause it was still a longtrip, and we agreed. Thenshe gave a pen

to one person and wanted us to pass on as soon as she said “stop”, the moment she said stop, people who held the penwould give some performance.

It was such a wonderful journey that we all laughed and enjoyed the game, we

sang songs, told stories and shared our ideas. That experience is so impressive that I can hardly forget it.

14．Where would you like your dream house to be? What special features would it have?

I would like my dreamhouse near the seaside, enjoyingthe freshair, sunset

and beautiful scenery, swimminginthe sea. The house does n’ t have to be that big or very luxurious but good enough to hold a family. It must have many windows so that I can see the world outside as well as wonderful views. And it also has balconies that I can enjoy the sunshine as well as fresh air. It is about three floors, white color outside witha small gardenwhere there are many trees and flowers. I think that would be perfect.

15． Do you prefer to travel by car or use public transportation? Why?

I would prefer to travel be public transportation. It is not only environmental- friendly but also economic. It is widely acknowledged that our planet has been suffered a lot because of the greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane. As a result, they accelerate global warmingand climate change which

can be great threats to the environment. Besides, traveling by transportation gives me some experience onthe trip, because I canmeet different people from different places, make friends and share our thinking about many things.

16．What historical places have youvisited? Whichwould youlike to visit in

the future?

I have visited several historical places such as the West Lake in Hangzhou which enjoys a reputation of “paradise”, Palace Museum in Beijing, Huangshan in Anhui province, it is famous for its beautiful scenery and steepness, and the Great Wall which is very spectacular. In the future, I would like have a visit to Potala Palace in Tibet, Summer Palace in Beijing, Mountain Tai in Shandong which are really feasts for eyes. I want to experience the atmosphere of history and feel the magnificent appeal.

17．What age do you think is the best age to be? Why?

Inmy perspective, the best age inone ’s life is 20. Since people who at this age have already experienced the most happy moment in their childhood and the most rebel time in the adolescence, they have a clearer idea and better understanding of what and how they should behave in their lives. At this age, people have the ability to recognize this world and get preparations for their future. It is a best time for us to build our values on life and other aspects and

also it sets the stage for our future development. It is young to realize one’s dream but good enough to gain lots of experience which may benefit us all lifelong time.
