Travel to Live, Live to travel
Travelling is one of the best ways to communicate and
interact with people. We can also learn different languages, see famous
places and also see the beauty of nature.
I remember my last visit to Italy. My dad had a
very important conference there. Since it was our vacation time, he invited
us to visit with him. My joy knew no bounds. I had been waiting for this
wonderful day to arrive, for a very long time. We quickly packed our bags and
headed straight to the airport. Look at the busyness of nature there! The airport
was buzzing with life and was as busy as a bee. I could see people with
luggage waiting, vendors selling food and loudspeaker giving information about
the flights. Thankfully, our flight arrived very soon. We went inside and… Wow!
Dad had booked our seats in the first-class section. The seats were as soft as
velvet. I sat beside the window seat to enjoy the beauty. After that, the plane
took off. I felt the cool air touch my face as I looked out of the window. I saw the bright, blue sky and the green, paddy fields. I also saw
the calm sea and the small and big waves hitting the shore. After that, it was sunset time. The golden cat looked so beautiful with the blending of Red,
Orange and Yellow. I had never seen it look like this in Bhubaneswar. After a
few more hours, we finally landed. I just couldn’t believe my eyes. It was a
whole new different world. It was just SO BEAUTIFUL. We went to our hotel and
booked our room. Then, we took our key, went to our room, dumped our suitcases,
arranged our stuff and then took some rest. After that, we had some biscuits
and then we went to explore. First, we went to see the Colosseum. It was epic.
We learned about its history and were amazed. It turns out that this monument
had been standing there for years. We asked our tour guide why it had been
broken. He said that it was because of an earthquake in the 7th
century that destroyed a part of it. Then, we went to see the leaning tower of
Pisa. There too, I was amazed. Even though the tower was leaning, it was not
falling at all. It was almost 9:30 at the night. My father suggested that we should
go home. But I didn't want to as my dreams were not fulfilled yet. But, my dad explained that it was too late so we all went back. For the next few days, I felt like my life was straight out of a fairy tale. We explored many places like Florence
Duomo Santa Maria del Fiore, The Grand Canal in Venice, Vatican City, Trevi
Fountain, Rialto Bridge and more, beaches like La Pelosa, Tropia Beach and did activities like taking a ride on Gondola, explored ancient Rome, went
to a beach in Puglia and did water sports and even tried to make pasta. But, my
favourite part was when we ate different kinds of pizza in different
restaurants. It was so much tastier than the one back at home. After all that,
we came back home.
