TES: Why do you like travelling?

A: I love travelling for 3 reasons: relaxation, learning about new cultures and learning about yourself in these new environments. Its interesting to see how adaptable you are/aren’t or are becoming through each new experience. 

TES: What annoys you about travelling?

A: Hmmm, I try not to get annoyed with travelling because I view it as a blessing to be able to experience different cultures but on that point complainers annoy me.
