F2F Class Notes 12th December (Selma)

Corrections

I like to travel to tropical places. 

One time I travelled to Phuket island and I tried scuba diving, and I found it was amazing.

I found it peaceful and beautiful.

There were a lot of creatures in the ocean.

After three or four days of instructions, I can get my licence.

Because of the pressure of my work – I like travelling because it helps me relieve the stress gained from work. 

I think I can do much things a lot more things. 

Recently, I started thinking that working in marketing is too much/stressful. 

I can immerse myself into the culture

I know how other people live their own life.   I can get to know how other people live their lives, in terms of being a part of a different culture. / I can get to know how other people live and compare it to how people in China live. 

I can extend/broaden my horizons. 

One of the bad sides of travelling is that it is expensive. 

You could get disappointed.

You could potentially get sick.

You don’t know what the locals are like, so they may end up being rude towards you.

They thought it was waste money. it is wasteful. 

I do have a plan to travel to Thailand in February.
