Do you prefer mountains or beaches?

Dialogue

Lawana: Hi, Max. I’m looking at places to go on vacation. What do you think? Do you prefer mountains or beaches?

Max: That’s an easy question for me. Beaches!

Lawana: Okay. Why is that?

Max: If you go to the beach, you can swim im the ocean. I’m sick of mountains. At home in Australia, I see mountains every day. How about you?

Lawana: It’s the opposite for me. I live near the sea in Thailand. I go to the beach almost every weekend. I really want to go to a mountain and learn how to ski.

Max: Yeah. I guess people like to go to new places and do new things on vacation.

Lawana: Exactly. Variety is the spice of life!

Fuku’s opinion

I prefer mountains.
Because I like rivers in the mountain.
If you go to the river, you can enjoy fishing and enjoy barbecues on the riverside.
And you can enjoy the sound of rivers and mountains.
So, I prefer mountains.
I want to go to mountains on vacation.

It’s your turn!
