Email Service Notes 4th August (Celeste)

Original

Planning travel is an interesting thing which I gradually start to like doing. I like traveling and especially going to somewhere far away alone, thus it is super important for me to make a detailed plan. At the beginning, I was not totally familiar with the process, for instance, how to order ticket, how to prepare the necessary things for the trip, how to make travel plan. When I went to the interesting place, I found that I forgot to bring this and bring that, on the contrary, I brought many useless extra stuffs. Besides, I easily got lost and spent much time to find the right road. But when I try to plan it several times and plus the experience I learnt, I am gradually familiar with the process. Currently I know where I can book the cheap ticket, where to book the hotels, what are the necessary things I need to bring with. Making detailed planning which also includes how to get the hotel from airport, how to go to the place I visit, how many hours it probably take when visit one place, etc. It depends on where I visit for how detailed the plan is. If I visit a place abroad, I will make extreme detailed plan in order to save money and time. In contrast, for some place nearby, a framework is enough and I enjoy the surprise a travel brings to me.

Planning to travel is an interesting thing which I gradually started to like doing. I like travelling and especially going somewhere far away alone, thus it is super important for me to make a detailed plan.

At the beginning, I was not totally familiar with the process, for instance, how to order/book a ticket, how to prepare the necessary things/pack for a trip, and how to make travel plans. When I went on my first trip / to an interesting place, I found that I forgot to bring the necessities / this and bring that. On the contrary, I brought many useless extra stuffs/things. Also /As well as, I easily got lost and spent a lot of time looking for the right road.

But now when I try to plan it several times and plus the experience I learnt, I am gradually familiar with the process. Now, I know where I can book the cheap tickets, where to book the hotels, and what are the necessary things I need to bring.  Making detailed plans also include how to get to the hotel from the airport, how to get to the place I want to visit, and how many hours it will probably take to visit one place, etc. It depends on where I will visit for how detailed the plan will be.  If I visit a place abroad, I will make an extremely detailed plan in order to save money and time. In contrast, for some places nearby, a rough idea / framework is enough and I enjoy the surprises travelling brings to me.

Hi Sophia,

I don’t understand this part:

But now when I try to plan it several times and plus the experience I learnt, I am gradually familiar with the process.

In your next class, I think you should take time to clarify and explain this sentence. Overall, great job ~Celeste
