My cousin Wang Hai loves to travel to new places and meet new people. He is quite1in travelling. He does not like to travel on a package tour（跟团旅行2, he would like to buy a guidebook for the place he is going to and search the Internet for information about the main sights.
Wang Hai loves this kind of travelling. Firstly, he doesn't have to pay3for his trip. Package tours usually4more because people have to pay for the costs of the travel agency（旅行社） and the tour guide. Secondly, he likes the fact that he does not have to wait for the tour group to5their photos or buy their souvenirs（纪念品）. If he has finished what he wants to do, he can leave and move on to the next place at once.
However, Wang Hai has had some6travelling all by himself. Sometimes he feels7and wishes that he had someone with him. Also, going to a different country on his own can be difficult and even8at times. Once, Wang Hai was in Africa and he could not speak the language. A strong man took away his bag on the train. He wasn't hurt, but he did not get his9back because the police could not understand him!
Wang Hai has had a few problems in the past,10he still likes to travel all by himself. He is learning English and he will travel to Australia at the end of this year.
