Traveling

Part 1 Janet Peters, 42 years old, architect from Sydney, Australia
I spend a lot of time working on projects across Asia. I often have to travel to other parts of Australia also. Most of the time I travel by plane. It is my preference. For vacations I prefer the train.

Part 2 Alex Johnson, 36 years old, musician from Miami, USA
We play all over the country. We also did a show in Brazil last year. Sometimes I feel like I live in hotels. I wake up and I do not know where I am. When I am on holiday I prefer to not travel.

Part 3 Susan Kate, 21 year old student from Cape Town, South Africa
South Africa is a large country. I am originally from Durban which is far away from school. When I go home I take the plane but sometimes I drive. There is also a bus. On vacations I prefer cars.

Part 4 John Jackson, 53 years old, unemployed from London, England
Right now I am not working so much so I don't travel much, although I like to travel. I do take the bus a lot (we have double deckers in London). I also take the tube when I have a job interview (the tube is called a subway in American English). On holiday, I like to bike. Last year we biked in Holland.
