Sample Answer

Nowadays, mobile phone has become a basic need of every human being. We cannot think about spending our days without this device.

Although mobile phone got introduced many years ago, I received my personal phone after a long struggle. I still remember when I got my first cell phone. It was around 7 to 8 years back when I was in the final year of my graduation. My all friends used to have mobile phones to be in touch with their family members. I was also planning to get one but my pocket money was not allowing me to buy an expensive phone.

I did not ask my parents to buy a mobile phone for me but somehow they realised that I am in need of it. It was my birthday when they decided to gift me one cell phone. They bought a latest model of Nokia cell phone, Nokia 6600. To be honest I never asked them about the price of that but one day while searching for some other documents I  found the receipt of purchase then I got to know it cost them rs9800/-. It was an expensive model with all the features.

I was very happy to get that phone as it was a very popular model of that time. It had all the latest features, 8 mega pixel camera, media player and other in built applications like Facebook and YouTube.

My first cell phone was with full of advanced technology of that time but these days, there are plenty of options available in mobile phones. It had 4 GB memory but currently I am using a phone, which has 128 GB in built memory. It helps me to store all the important data handy. Camera quality is also excellent that can be compared with any professional Nokia DSLR cameras.

My whole family is a travel freak. Every year during summer vacation we make a plan to explore a new destination across the globe. While choosing a destination we always keep in mind preference of each family member. We’ve visited many countries of the Middle East, like Egypt, Bahrain, Kuwait, Jordan, and a few countries from the Eastern region like Malaysia, Singapore and Thailand etc.  Now, we are keen to visit whole Europe, There are many countries in the Europe and covering all the countries in one go cannot be possible. We always prefer to visit each destination thoroughly that is why we have decided to take one destination at a time. This year we all have decided to go to Italy. The main reason behind choosing Italy as our first travel destination in Europe is that my father was a history teacher before retirement. He used to recite many stories about Roman history, his stories have inculcated interest in us to visit Italy one day. Italy is called the golden boot of Europe as it has a boot shape picture in European map.

There are various other reasons as well behind selecting Italy as a first country to get into Europe. Not to speak of only rich cultural heritage of Italy, this country is full of monuments, sculptures and many others breathtaking views.
