"Holidays

People usually go on holiday to have a rest, to visit renowned monuments and interesting places, to live through some adventure or to see their family members, who live far away.

Why do we need holidays?
In my opinion, holidays are really important, because everybody needs a rest sometimes. We also need change our usual regime, get out of the stereotype and make time for things that we can´t do normally.

Kinds of holidays
You can choose from a lot of types of holiday. We divide them on active and passive holidays.

An active holiday is for example a hiking holiday, where you go on some trips, especially to the mountain. It can be also an adventure holiday, where you try some adrenaline experiences or a backpacking holiday, when you travel only with your backpack. These 2 types of holiday are popular with young people. An active holiday is also any other holiday, where you do some sport.

Many people don´t like active holidays, because they want to relax on their holiday. In that case, they can go on a beach holiday, a spa holiday, a sightseeing holiday, where they visit many monuments, or a cruise holiday, when they spend their holiday on a cruise ship.

Some people, especially students, prefer a working or educational holiday. They often travel abroad, where they have a part-time job, so they can earn some money, but also visit interesting places, meet new people and improve their English.

I prefer passive holidays, because I am quite lazy and I love relaxing, but in winter, I like to go on holiday to the mountains, where I can ski. In the future, I would like to go abroad and do for example au-pair or some part-time job there. "
