PART 1
TRAVELING
ANSWERS
Do you like traveling?
(Answer 1)
I love traveling! I make it a point (to make sure that it happens) to travel at least once a month to any places in this country so I can de-stress (relax after a period of work or tension). Also, I do my best to travel abroad once a year so I can motivate myself to save money. Actually, I love traveling outside this country because I’m able to change my perspective on life as I get to experience new cultures and lifestyles.
(Answer 2)
Yes, of course! Who doesn’t like traveling? (rhetorical question – a question that doesn’t need an answer; it is only used to add a dramatic effect) I mean traveling is fun, isn’t it? I think only those killjoys (people who spoil the pleasure of others) who don’t enjoy traveling. Anyway, I travel from time to time as long as I’m free because traveling gives me more energy and reasons to keep exploring life.
How often do you go traveling?
(Answer 1)
As I said, once a month if it’s a local trip and once a year if it’s international. Of course, I would really love to travel as much as I can, however, my savings don’t allow me to. But anyway, I’m not complaining as I still get to travel. I’m still privileged (having advantages or special rights). You know, not all people in the world have the means to travel.
(Answer 2)
Well, several times (some but not many) a year. I used to travel a lot in the past because of my previous company. I had to go on business trips with my seniors and if I had some extra time during those business trips, I was allowed to explore the place where we held meetings. That was actually fun!
Where do you usually travel?
(Answer 1)
I’m not a typical traveler. I visit those places that are off the beaten path (not known or popular among other people) because there’s more excitement and surprises. But I’m not saying that I don’t visit those places that are popular among tourists. I do visit them, as well, however, I just find those places that aren’t popular more exciting.
(Answer 2)
Well, normally to some common places such as beaches, if I want to breathe fresh air; mountains, as well, if I want to be close to nature; and shopping malls. Just last weekend, I went to one of the best shopping centers in the capital that’s popular among tourists and I splurged on (to spend a lot of money) clothes and shoes.
How do you feel when you’re traveling?
(Answer 1)
I think it’s never enough to only use one adjective to describe the feeling that I have when I travel. Of course, I feel happy, thrilled (excited), anxious, exhausted, reinvigorated (to have new energy), blessed, grateful, and many more. Like I said, it’s hard to pick a single word to describe my feelings whenever I go on a holiday.
(Answer 2)
I always have mixed emotions (both positive and negative feelings). Well, like everybody else, I feel happy and excited because I get to experience something new in my life. But there’s no denying that some negative feelings exist such as anxiousness, confusion, and the like (and similar things), especially when I encounter a challenge during my trip. Also, exhaustion can be felt after a day of exploring different places.
