Many people travel for their international companies
as managers or bussinessmen.There are many
international companies, so people who want to be a
good bussinessmen must also like travelling.
In modern age many students study at foreign
universities in whole Europe.They take long
kilometres to study at best universities.Students
also travel to get better in foreign languages,for
example English learning courses.
4. • Holiday
• Other opportunities
People like staying at the seaside,lying on the beach
getting suntan and just relaxing...That is another
reason while a lot of people travel to holiday
destinatons like Costa Brava in Spain,Chalkidiki in
Greece and many other.
Celebrations,funerals,anniversaries or just
meetings with friends.These journies help to
keep together families and friends.
5. Forms of travel:
• Aeroplane
• Bus
It is fast,comfortable and in nowadays also
cheap,so it is the best way to travel.However,there
is a danger falling down the plane.Well it is up to
you,how you decide...
We have modern busses equipied with
television,bar or toilets.They are safer and cheaper
than trains,but there are a lot of stops in towns along
the way,so travelling can take longer time.
6. • Train
• Car
• Ship
Before air travel was possible, people used to travel
long distances by sea. In the first half of the twenty
century, grand passanger ships made regular voyages
between all the continents.
Sitting on the train means comfort and socializing
for many people.You can have some refreshments
served to you directly in your compartement.If you
travel at night,you can sleep in a sleeper car to get
some rest through night.
The dominant form of transport in the 20th and 21st
century has been undoubtely car.You can take a car and
go anyway you want.Car is symbol of independence and
freedom especially in America, where each member of
the family has own car.
7. • Motorbike
• Bicycle
....and one illegal type of transport is hitch-hiking...
Large number of road users have replaced their
noisy,smelly four wheelers for a much cleaner and
more efficient machine – the bicycle.Countries like
Netherlands or Switzerland are famous for
protecting their environment and you can see
thousands of bicycle in the streets.
Motorbike has one advantage, but many disadvantages,
like a form of transport.Advantage is that you are original
and well-looking with motorbike, but disadvantages are
rain, snow, and motorbike can consist of only two
passangers, but as you can see from the photo, it doesn‘t
have to be true....
8. Destinations:
• Capital cities:
• Sea
People visit capital cities to know and see
history, architecture and life of this city.Tourism
is one of the main incomes of capital cities like
Prague,Wien or Bratislava.
Every year thousands of tourists visit holiday resorts
to have a relax after hard whole-year work.In
nowadays also a lot of Slovaks like a holiday by
sea.Favourite destinations of Slovak people are
Bulgary,Croatia,Greece,Italy, Turkey or Spain.People
like sea, sun, sand ,having fun or just a week or two
weeks off spent by sea.
9. • Mountains

Spending some days on mountains during winter is the best
way to relax and income new energy for thousands of people.
Tourists like skiing, snowboarding, ice-skating or
sledge.Winter sports are widespread also in Slovakia thanks
