  1. Yes I do like to travel the only thing I don't like is how we get there I don't like going through the security and flying in a “school bus”. I have travels to Atlanta Georgia, Boston Massachusetts, New York, Mexico and Florida. I usually visits Atlanta because my grandparents live there and we celebrate holidays with them and my oldest cousins and my aunt and uncle live there too. My travels have taught me that your family is everything and you to whatever extent to be with them.

  2. I love traveling. Traveling to France brought me the chance to go visit my godparents in their country for the first time. It's fun discovering different cultures by traveling and you're having fun at the same time. I've learnt from traveling that you can't be afraid or you can't judge a certain food without traveling you have to be open minded when you travel and that's how you discover food that you thought you would've never tried.

    I enjoy travelling a lot. My family likes to vacation all over the place. I have been to many places in my life. I have been to many different states, traveled around Canada many times and I have been Cuba which I am going back to this year. The most important thing I have learned from my travels is that you should always wear sunscreen.

  4. I enjoy traveling a lot , but sadly I don't travel very much. Every year I go to PEI with my family and thats about it. There are many things I have learned from my travels, but the most important thing that i learned was, money, alway and I say always bring more money than you plan on bringing or that you intend to spend, because it will turn out that there will be something you will want to buy and you won't be able to because you won't have any more money left.

  5. I love to travel, and usually I go to Dominican Republic with my family, my grand parents and some friends. I learned many things when I went to Dominican Republic but what I found was the most important was how there were many poor people they're with no houses, and from that I learned its not easy to make money.

  6. Traveling in my opinion, is super fun. you get to go to a bunch of places and learn new things. Although it's not the cheapest thing in the world it's definetely worth the money. My family and I ussually go to Cape Cod right as I finish all my exams and we go for about a week. We love doing that which is exactly why we've been going there for five years now! Throughout the five years I've been going to Cape Cod I've learned a lot about what it's like to live in such a nice place. I'm surprised on how different things are in the United States and Canada and I've so much for that. I hope to one be able to take my kids there someday.

  7. I used to love traveling, we've gone to England, and explored Canada, but now we can only afford to go to the same places. It's always Ontario or Vancouver, but id love to go to Vancouver again. one of my dads employees is moving to Japan and we will be visiting next summer hopefully. To be honest, all we've learned from these trips is how to lie about them to our grandparents, I know, strange.

  8. I love to travel, although I don't do very much of it. Last year I went on my first real vacation. I went on a cruise for a week with my god father and his family. We left from New York and went to Bahamas and Florida, it was beautiful. Seeing their way of things,is so much different then ours. We didn't really get to see much of the city but we did get off the boat to visit beaches and to shop. There were lots and lots of people selling things, everywhere I turned my head was someone yelling out what sales their little boutique was selling. It was very busy. It was an amazing trip and the food was excellent. Other then this trip I've been to Toronto, mostly for water polo since our tournaments are away sometimes. If we go far enough in the standings, we'll get to travel to Vancouver. I'm so excited! I haven't really learned much from my travels although I'm excited to on more.

  9. I really like travelling! I have been to Italy 3 years ago and the food was great! We stayed there 3 weeks visiting family and visiting monuments. Last years ago we went to the Maritimes and we visited PEI, Nova Scotia, New Brunswick and Newfoundland. It was great we ate a lot of sea food and lobster. I learned the history of Italy and how nice the people from the Maritimes are.

  10. I love going on vacation because it is usually a really nice and warm place and the hotels are usually super nice and they have gigantic pools in the hotels. I have been to California this summer and the summer before it was Jamaica and we've been to many beautiful places. I've learned many things from some of the travels I've been to like the hotels in Jamica are amazing but outside the hotel there are a lot of poor people and it is sad.

  11. I love traveling, I learn a lot from it. The few places I’ve been to have shown me all the different traditions and cultures around the world. I love seeing and trying new things, so going to different places gives me the opportunity to experience that. It also makes great memories with family and friends that brings us all closer.

  12. I have always loved travelling to other countries since it gives you a chance to see other cultures. Travelling has brought me to quite a few countries and I have had awesome experiences everywhere. A lot of the time when I have traveled is when I have no school and after experience I could say travelling you really get stress free and don't care about anything for a while atleast.

  14. I absolutely love traveling, no doubt about that. Unfortunately i don't travel very much i only really ever go to Toronto. The only time i've ever gone outside of Canada was in grade 5 or 6 when i went to New York City. I got to see what it's like in a city full of busy people, the city where people are constantly rushing everywhere and i got to have fun and live life.

  15. Ok, I hate travelling, but I love travelling, know what Im saying? Neither do I. I love travelling, like being there, being somewhere else, but I hate the action of travelling, by plane I mean. I fine with cars, boats, train, the rest of the lot, but planes are out of the question. Think about one mistake on a plane, can cause your death. One little mistake. That's what I hate about traveling. I've been to Switzerland, Iceland, Paris, and I don't remember the rest. That was a long time ago so the memories are hazy. As I said, the memories are hazy so, I've probably forgotten everything I've learned whilst travelling.

  16. I love traveling. I've traveled to Greece, Florida, New-York France and many more. Of course tho since i'm Greek, my favorite place to travel is Greece. The oceans there are so clear and shallow that you could see all fish clearly. The first time I went to Greece, there was a whole swarm of orange fish nibbling
    on me. It was awesome. The main reason we go to Greece is to see
    are family. We always Greek dance because we love it and do many more. No matter what the case family always comes first. From all my experiences, the things that I've learned the most is that the way everybody lives is different. It always feels weird when it's your first time but when you get used to it, everything turns out to be fun.

  17. I love travelling, it is one of my favorite things to do. I enjoy travelling because I learn new things and experience many different cultures. I have travelled to many amazing places and it brings me much pleasure. By travelling, I have learnt many different things such as being grateful for what I have since many of these places have much more poverty than we see here. i've also learnt that not everywhere is like canada. there are many unique places outside of this country.

  19. I love to travel but the only thing is that I get sick from boats, long car rides and planes. My travels have brought me to many places. I’ve been to Florida a lot, usually 2-3 times a year, Toronto multiple times, Ottawa about four times, New York once, Boston twice, Maine many times when I was younger, Lake George about three times, New Jersey once and many more. I’ve learned how they live their life which is pretty similar to ours since all these places are in a first world countries.

  22. I love travelling, I went to Cuba once, China four times and America five times. I had many memories visiting my family in China. In Cuba, there was a buffet that you can eat how many you want and when you want, the beach was so relaxing. The weather was warm, but nice. I hope I can go to Cuba again.

  24. Traveling is nice but I can't say I'm fond of it.I don't really care much if I get to go to somewhere else other than Montreal because I haven't traveled enough to say that I really like it.Honestly I couldn't care less if I get to see some monumental structure because for me there just buildings.Ive traveled to the states a couple times and I also traveled to Niagra falls and Toronto.

I've not really learn't much about travelling because well.. I haven't done much to learn anything. You get the deal and all... I'd like to go to germany and wales sometime though..
