    There are three types of vacations which are divided from the distance to the destination. The first type is domestic vacation. The domestic vacation usually spent >lasts about three days to seven days. Therefore, the cost is comparatively >relatively lower; and there are more scenery we can enjoy. We can leisurely and slowly enjoy the marvelous landscapes. For example, in Taiwan, if we live in Taipei and we want to arrange a domestic vacation, we can go to the midst of Taiwan, such as Taichung, Changhua and Nantou. In addition, if we keep going south, we can go to Yunlin, Chiaya and Tainan; until we reach the south district Kaohsiung and Pingtung. Taking the THSR or TRA is the most convenient way we can choose; we can only spend about two to three hours taking the THSR to the farthest district. Driving a car is also an easy and usual way to travel. It cannot >will not be limited by the place where the train or bus cannot arrive at. For example, I had a pretty wonderful time with my family this New Year vacation. My parents took us to Changhua, Yunlin and Chiaya to have a three-day family trip. We went to many sightworthy >breathtaking landscapes where were not so crowded, such as “寒溪泥”, “萬年峽谷” and “五元二角”. The trip not only cost economically but also gave me countless pleasant memories.  Choosing two or three districts to sightsee does not take too much time and cost >money. Moreover, we can enjoy the views much deeply.
    The second type of vacation is travelling in the neighboring countries. It generally takes about five days to ten days. Consequently, the cost will be more expensive than the domestic vacation’s cost; but we can only have a few views due to the higher cost of the air tickets and traveling expenses. Joining a tour group can save us a lot of money; however, we cannot enjoy our free time because of catching up the travel schedule. Most of the Taiwanese will take Korea, Japan, China, Singapore, Indonesia or Malaysia to >as their first time travel country. In many neighboring countries, I have >had gone to Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand since >when I was a child. I extremely love to travel to the Southeast Asia. The warm and genial sunshine, the pearl-white beach, the tasty and refreshing coconut milk, the lively and lighthearted music and the relaxed >relaxing and simple lifestyle in Southeast Asia were all my biases >favorites and made me linger on with no thought of leaving. If I have enough money and time, I will spend my vacation there again.
The third type of vacation is traveling in the countries which do not belong to Asia. Generally speaking, it takes about ten days or even two months. Therefore, it takes the most >more money and time; hence, it must have its difficulty. Half of the Taiwanese cannot afford the high payment of traveling to Europe, America even Australia. If we want to reach these places, the first thing we need to solve is the cost of air ticket. It must spend >usually costs beyond twenty thousands. From the viewpoint of normal Taiwan people, twenty thousand may be their income in a month. Needless to say, the payment >cost of the whole journey must be so high that no normal >average Taiwanese People can afford it. Take myself for an example, I have never gone to the countries which do not belong to Asia. If the whole circumstance was possible for me to go abroad, I must absolutely seize the chance. 
To sum up, the experiences and memories which we get from the journey >travelling cannot be measured by money. These invisible harvests can widely extend our experiences and knowledge, open our view and even enrich our life. They are fairly significant and just like an irreplaceable treasure in our living. No matter what kind of travel, they must have their values and are worth trying. It is better to travel far than to read voluminously. If in the future you have the chance to travel, no matter to foreign or domestic countries, please do not hesitate, just pack up your baggage and then go your way. You will discover that you get more that you think!
