Ithink it is impossible to live in our modern word without travelling because there are many interesting places to visit and see. railway and bus stations, airports and seaport are busier in summer than in other seasons of a year because of school holidays. travelling is the best way of spending holidays because you can visit different interesting places in your country and abroad. i prefer to travel by train because i like to look out of the  window and watch the nature and a lot of small towns and villages. of course, i usually travel with my parents because i am a teenager and my parents don’t allow me to travel by myself. i have already been in moscow, berlin, volgograd,  saratov. i have never been to london. it’s my dream. seaside is better to travel in summer because you can swim and dive, sunbathe and relax. my parents and i always take a camera with us when we are going to travel because we like to take photos very much. to my mind it is better to travel for pleasure because you may relax and don’t think about business.  

My husband and i met at a birthday party of my friend. we made friends and began to communicate. but i knew that he liked me. he beautifully took care about me and i fell in love. we spent all our free time together. of course, sometimes we had a quarrel. we broke up but then we realized that it was a really love and we decided to get married. then a boy was born in our family. many years have passed and we already have our grandchildren. and now we are celebrating our wedding anniversary.
