Yes, I really like traveling because it gives me a chance to see new places, meet interesting people, and learn about different cultures. I usually travel with my family or close friends, as it’s more fun to share new experiences together. Sometimes I go far from the place where I live, but not always — it depends on how much time I have. My trips can be both long and short: in summer I prefer longer vacations, and during weekends I often go on short trips nearby.

Yes, I usually bring souvenirs to my family and friends from every trip. I think it’s a nice way to share a part of my journey with them. I like to buy small local things — magnets, postcards, handmade crafts, or sweets that are typical for the place I visit. These souvenirs remind me and others about the good memories from the trip.

I would like to go to the south of Russia because of the warm climate, the sea, and beautiful nature. Places like Sochi, Crimea, or the Caucasus Mountains are very attractive to me. I enjoy spending time near the sea and exploring new regions.

I don’t always travel only in summer. Sometimes I also travel in winter, especially to enjoy winter activities. In winter I like to go to places with mountains, such as the Altai or the Urals, where I can ski and admire snowy landscapes. Winter trips are shorter, but they are full of special charm.

In our country, I would like to visit Lake Baikal, Saint Petersburg, and Kamchatka because they are unique and beautiful. Abroad, I would like to visit Japan, Italy, and Norway — Japan for its culture, Italy for its history and food, and Norway for its amazing nature and northern lights.
