Reflection On My Europe Trip
Crater of Mt. Vesuvius
Salt mine in SalzburgGuten Tag! Ciao!
I would like to thank the entire Humanities teacher especially Mdm Koh, Ms Sazryna and Mr. Gavin for arranging this trip for us. I would also like to thank our tour guide Mr. Dan and our tour bus driver Mr. Jani for making this trip so enjoyable and ensure us a safe ride on the bus.
Germany, Austria and Italy are the three countries we went to visit. Those three countries are part of European Union or known as EU. The EU is a political and economic union of 27 member states, located in Europe. We can travel from Germany to Italy freely without passing through the customs as the EU is a customs union, travelers between EU countries do not have to pay customs duties. I will now share with you what I learn during this trip.
Similarities between Germany and Italy:
1. Germany and Italy is both a member of European Union.
2. Germany and Italy are two of the three countries who started World War II. The leader of Germany, Adolf Hitler and the leader of Italy, Benito Mussolini.
3. Germany and Italy both drive on the left side of the car.
Differences between Germany and Italy:
1. Italy traffic is much busier than Germany traffic. Italian driver park their cars along the road, this make the road narrower and thus slow down the traffic flow.
2. Germany is much colder than Italy due to the geographical location of their country. Germany is located in Central Europe and Italy is located in Southern Europe.
3. Germany is famous for their cars (BMW) and beer but Italy is famous for their pizza, spaghetti and pasta.
We were back in Singapore at last. Actually, I miss those days we were in Europe. This trip has changed me into a more independent person. I have also able to make more friends and get to know more about our teachers. We share those happiness and sadness together. It was a great learning experience for us as it helps me to gain more knowledge about Europe that is outside our textbook. It is a ‘once in a life time’ experience for me to travel so far away from Singapore. I really learnt a lot from this trip. Hope that there will be another chance for us to go Europe again, same people, and same places.
