Tourism
People travel from the very beginning of their civilization. Thousands years ago all people were
nomads and collectors. They roamed all their lives looking for food and better life. This way
human beings populated the whole planet Earth. So, travelling and visiting other places are the
part of our consciousness. That is why tourism and travelling are so popular.
Currently tourism has become a highly developed business. There are trains, cars and air jet
liners, buses, ships that provide us with comfortable and secure travelling.
If we travel for pleasure, by all means, one would like to enjoy picturesque places they are passing
through, one would like seeing the places of interest, enjoying the sightseeing of the cities, towns
and countries.
Nowadays people travel not only for pleasure but also on business. People have to go to other
countries for taking part in different negotiations, for signing some very important documents, for
participating in different exhibitions, in order to exhibit the goods of own firm or company.
Travelling on business helps people to get more information about achievements of other
companies, which will help making own business more successful.

Turism
Oamenii călătoresc încă de la începutul civilizației lor. Cu mii de ani în urmă,
toți oamenii erau nomazi și colecționari. Ei au cutreierat toată viața căutând hrană
și o viață mai bună. În acest fel, ființele umane au populat întreaga planetă Pământ.
Deci, călătoriile și vizitarea altor locuri fac parte din conștiința noastră. De aceea
turismul și călătoriile sunt atât de populare.
În prezent turismul a devenit o afacere foarte dezvoltată. Există trenuri, mașini și
avioane aeriene, autobuze, nave care ne oferă o călătorie confortabilă și sigură.
Dacă călătorim de plăcere, cu toate mijloacele, cineva ar dori să se bucure de
locurile pitorești prin care trec, ar dori să vadă locurile de interes, să se bucure de
vizitarea orașelor, orașelor și țărilor.
În zilele noastre oamenii călătoresc nu numai pentru plăcere, ci și pentru afaceri.
Oamenii trebuie să meargă în alte țări pentru a participa la diferite negocieri, pentru
a semna unele documente foarte importante, pentru a participa la diferite expoziții,
pentru a expune bunurile propriei firme sau companie. Călătoriile în afaceri îi ajută
pe oameni să obțină mai multe informații despre realizările altor companii, ceea ce
va ajuta la creșterea succesului propriei afaceri.

Nowadays people can travel by car, by train or plane, if we have got a long distance tour. Some
young people prefer walking or hitch-hike travelling, when you travel, paying nearly nothing.
You get new friends, lots of fun and have no idea where you will be tomorrow. It has great
advantages for the tourists, who want to get the most out of exploring the world and give more

Tourism is one of the largest industries in the world

It can be due to the various beautiful locations, the services, the importance of
the areas requested by visitors, the history, etc. Due to its tourism, many visions
have changed from an economic, scientific, etc. point of view. People traveling saw
new things that they learned and then returned to the places or areas where they left
to implement them. Thus, due to the exchange of experience, the development of all
practical and theoretical fields, etc. was positively influenced.
