Eliza: I love travelling by train best! It’s very exciting. I travelled most of Europe in 5 months by train. It’s the best way to talk with the local people and make new friends on the way. Trains make even the longest trip enjoyable. The train ride to me is just like a big moving party. I also like travelling by ship. It is a very great way to spend a vacation. I can go to parties and movies on the ship, and enjoy the blue sky and water.

There are always interesting people doing crazy （疯狂的） things in this world. Two young men took a taxi all the way from Sanya in Hainan to Urumqi in Xinjiang. They used DiDi to call a taxi to go to Urumqi from Sanya. At first, they just wanted to see if any driver would take the order. But they got a surprise that they didn’t have to wait for too long. A driver took their order.

First, they drove from Sanya to Haikou. Then they found a ship that could take them to leave Hainan, and their car too. They drove to Guizhou, Chongqing, and then Shaanxi and Gansu. They enjoyed the beautiful mountains and rivers on the trip. They also tried a lot of delicious food, like hotpot and Lanzhou Lamian.

Six days later, the three men arrived in Urumqi. How much did the two men pay for their trip? 14,684.86 yuan! It was an expensive trip! The two men asked the driver, “If we asked you for a return trip, from Urumqi to Sanya, what would you say?” The driver smiled and answered, “Of course, no problem!”
