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. Rome is famous for one of the seven wonders of world, the leaning tower of Pisa. Venice and Florence cities are famous for its natural beauties. Because of its picturesque views many Hollywood and Bollywood movies have also been picturized there.

Italian cuisines are world famous. Who doesn’t know about mouthwatering Italian pizzas? They are the talk of the world.

IELTS SPEAKING TASK CUE CARD:

A time when someone gave you money as a gift.

• When it was?
• Who gave you money as gift?
• What did you do with that amount?

Sample Answer

Giving money as a gift has been a part of our culture since long back. We present money as a gift on various occasions to our relatives, loved ones and friends.

One such incident when I received money as a gift was on my birthday. My birthday falls in the month of March. So, just a month back only I got money in the form of a gift. On my birthday, early in the morning, my parents came into my room, flooded me with their precious blessings also gave me an envelope which had Rs 20,000/- in it.

My parents always ask my need and desire for my birthday present. However, surprisingly this year on my birthday instead of asking me about anything. My parents gave me money. It was very kind gesture. It gave me a sense of responsibility to utilise that amount in such a way that I can make them feel proud of their decision of giving me money as a present. They must have thought that their daughter is mature to take care of money wisely.

Initially I was confused how to spend that money as I was not in need of any particular thing. After thinking a lot, I decided to save that money for my future requirements. I always wanted to have a bank account and that amount was sufficient to open a personal bank account. I used that money to open a bank account. When my parents got to know about my decision they were overwhelmed and appreciated me a lot.
