Revised:

Nowadays, people prefer to travel on holiday. Before the coronavirus/COVID-19, people travelled abroad to experience, but now they can only travel within the country.
I am so jealous that some people can travel alone; they are so brave. For me, if I want to travel anywhere, I need my friend to come with me. Maybe I’m suited to go with tour groups/travel with groups, but there are always some bad news about travelling with tour groups. For example, tour guides promote lots of souvenir shops and force you to buy souvenirs, if not they won’t let you go. This kind of news leaves a bad impression in my mind/leaves a bad taste in my mouth.
