My work keeps me in Hongkong most of the year, but I do try to get 1 . For a month in 2 usually July, now as you probably know
that’s the main 3 season in Europe,
the favorite places for holiday and the famous cities are usually very 4 . But I’m not seeking the sun --I get
plenty of 5 in Hongkong - and I’m certainly
not seeking the 6 ! So when I go on holiday I buy a Train
Pass (a sort of train ticket ) that 7 me first class travel on most of the 8 of Western Europe. First class
compartments are 9 crowded and they are very comfortable. If
you’re going on an overnight 10 you can take a sleeping train for some
extra money. There are usually dining cars in the train.
I find that 11 travel is restful and 12 . There is always something to see. I
particularly enjoy 13 through Switzerland
and Italy.
You can get a very good 14 of what a country is like from a train;
you don’t go too fast and you stop quite often. 15 rail travel is very safe and I am never
sick on a train 16 I am on a ship ! Then there are always
people to 17 if you feel like a chat. The 18 why I seldom travel by plane is quite
simple. As train stations are usually built in the city centre, I don’t have to
19 transport, transport can be a problem
when arriving by 20 .
