Benefits of Travelling Locally
Good afternoon to my English Language teacher, Pn Zurifah.
Today, I would like to deliver a speech entitled benefits of
travelling locally.Travel has always been a really good option to
relax during our vacation. Which way will benefit people more,
travelling domestically or overseas? From my perspective, there are
more advantages when people travel in their own countries.First of
all, comparing travel abroad, there is no language barrier when
people are travelling within their home country. Its much easier
for people to deal, no matter whether buying the transportation
tickets, booking hotels, asking for direction or ordering dishes in
a restaurant. We are all familiar with the scene where a foreigner
conducts all kinds of gestures in order to let people understand
what they want to express. If we travel abroad, we may be the one
standing in the street and gesturing, or sitting in a restaurant,
facing a menu, but having no idea what kind of food the restaurant
offers and what we should order.Moreover, travelling domestically,
people can learn the local customs and culture mush better and
faster, even if there are some difference concerning customs and
culture between different parts according to the different climate
and geography. After all, all the parts of the country have
interacted for a long time, shared the culture and created history
together. Hence, we wont be utterly strange about them even if we
havent been there before. Its easy for us to recall the knowledge
amassed before. Furthermore, its economical to travel in our own
countries. We can choose train or bus, which are more economical
than air plane. We dont need to spend a fortune on the tickets in
order to fly over the ocean to the other side. Even if we opt to
travel by air, the price of a domestic flight is lower than that of
international line more often than not. As we know, in many
countries, the vendors sell items to foreigners with much higher
price than to their folks. Therefore, we could harvest have a good
time economically if we travel domestically.In a word, if I plan
for my vacation, I will choose travelling in my own country, since
it can bring me an enjoyable vacation with lots of benefits.Thank
you.
