Kim
I live in the city centre, so the shops are near to my house. I take the bus. Taxis are too
expensive. Sometimes I walk home. My favourite way of travelling is the train. It’s very
relaxing.
Connie
My children go to a school two kilometres away. I go by bus to meet them because it’s
cheap. I prefer taking a taxi to the town centre – it’s easy to go home with my shopping
bags. I don’t travel by train. I don’t go very far from my home.
Abdul
I like driving so I travel by car a lot. Cars are my favourite way of travelling. When I travel
to another city, I prefer going by car because it’s comfortable and quick.
