Travelling: means of transport

I always travel in summer. Do you? I like to travel and forget about school. As I know, people started traveling many years ago. The first travelers were explorers. They traveled because they wanted to find adventures and to become wealthy and famous. Their trips were dangerous, but they wanted to discover the new lands. Today traveling isn`t so dangerous and it is more convenient. The tourist companies take care of tickets and make all the necessary reservations. While traveling around the world you can choose different means of transport: trains, ships, planes or bicycles. I think that the fastest and the most convenient way of traveling is by air. However, it is the most expensive. Trains are slower than planes, but this way of traveling has its advantages. Modern trains are very comfortable besides, you can see the interesting places of the country you are traveling through. The main advantages of planes and trains are safety, comfort and speed. That is the reason why most people prefer them to other means of transport. Nowadays traveling by sea has become very popular. You can visit other countries or various places of interest within the country when you travel by ship or boat.

My favorite way of travelling is travelling by car. I believe it is very convenient. I don’t need to make any reservations or carry heavy suitcases. I can stop whenever I wish and spend as much time as I wish at any place.

People have always complained about lack of time. there's a saying that time is money, but time is (more important) than money.if occasionally we spend too much money, we know that we can earn it again, it's a (renewable ) thing. time, however, can never be restored. that's why it's more precious. there are special courses that help (people ) deal with time (efficiently ) . they teach how to set the priorities and how to allocate time for the items in your to-do list. for example, they advise you to write a list of everything you want to do during the week. then you need to (write it down ) , and to rearrange the items starting with the first priority. allocate time from the top of the list to ensure that the most important things are done on time. a friend of (mine ) took a course on time (management ) and found it quite (useful ). i know that a similar course is run every saturday in the business school next to my house. i would like to enrol on the course very much, but cannot find time for it.
