I used to travel to make myself relaxed. Two years ago, I was rather busy with my business and under a lot of _____, so I went to Las Vegas for a holiday. I just wanted to get away and _____ for a while.
When I was on holiday, a(n) _____ suddenly came to me. I had long wished to pay a visit to the Greek island of Santorini. Therefore, the idea of a two-week European _____ alone was born.
I’d driven _____ across the US before, but traveling to other countries whose languages aren’t the same as mine frightened me. I was worried I wouldn’t be able to _____ with anyone.
But I soon _____ that if I wanted to follow my dreams, I had to _____ out of my comfort area. If I let _____ take control of me, I’d get nowhere.
As I was in search of more places to visit on my trip, I found Mykonos, Greece, which I ______ just as much as I liked Santorini. When I arrived in Europe, it was like I was in a dream.
What I appreciated best was the bus ride to Venice. As I rode the bus and enjoyed every new thing I saw, I was completely ______ from the pressure of my work. How ______ it was to see people riding their bikes to the ______they’d like to go to!
Some people might say, “It’s not a big ______; it’s just Venice. Thousands of people go there every day.” But it was more than that to me. It was about having a ______ and when it was time for it to come true, don’t let it go.
