over the years, there have been many changes in my attitude to an ideal holiday. when i was a young girl i used to watch a lot of cartoons. if you asked me about my ideal holidays about 7 years ago i would tell you that it was spending all day in front of my computer and watching, for example, sponge bob. nevertheless, i have grown up and my preferences have changed. i'm leaving school this year and it's the last year when i have so much time for holidays. let's dream with me about absolutely breathtaking holiday.

since i was 15 i have been dreaming of travelling in europe.

imagine yourself on the first day you arrive in german, on the second in ireland, on the third in france and so on. every country is like a little world with its own nature, culture, attractions. i wish i could meet my favourite band with a concert in these countries. it is the ultimate dream. some people claim that five-star hotels, expensive restaurants are the most important part in holidays abroad. i believe there is no evidence to support this view. my ideal holiday shouldn't cost immense amount of money. for example, you can meet your soul mate in the hostel or in an unremarkable cafe you can be fed in hundred times better than in a precious restaurant. i think that the key to a good holiday is a complex of a good company of friends or your loved one and long duration to do everything you have been dreaming   about. personally, i would like to travel globe-trotting the world and i want to start with europe like i have already mentioned. in every country i want to take a lot of photos and videos to share with people in social networks. so, my ideal holiday must include picturesque places with neo-classical architecture. the truth is that joviality of a holiday plays a big role in your overall impression. why don't visit some off the beaten track places? like local circus or mime's show? i suppose everyone should visit unusual places during a holiday to have something to remember.

to sum up, i have told you about my priorities in an ideal holiday. so many men, so many minds.   for someone ideal holiday is a voyage on luxury yacht with red and black caviar, for someone it's sleeping on their bed. dreams are different, goals of holidays are different. my main goals are to improve my language skill and to expand my mind. i hope some day my ideal holiday will come true.
