Answer flow: No, not really. ► ► I Why ► Feeling ► What effect ► Opinion

No, not really; travelling by plane is not a good option for me because I'm afraid of heights. I always feel nauseous from being so high up in the air. Also, I suffer from jet lag after a long plane ride. Besides that, I think airplane rides are often quite expensive.

Well, I prefer driving my own car when going on a long trip. First of all, I enjoy the comfort and privacy of my car. Second, I can stop anytime and anywhere I want to. It is very good because I can adjust the travelling schedule for my own convenience.

Answer flow: Alone ► ► l Why ► Where ► What you do

I definitely like travelling alone because I can go wherever and do whatever I want. I usually go solo to beaches and places with rich culture and history. During trips, I try out all the food I can eat and visit all the places I possibly could.

Paris ► ~ Why ► Where you went ► What you do ► Feeling

My favorite destination is Paris, of course! I love our visits to Paris because of the lovely sights and food. Actually, every time we went there, we never missed to visit the Eiffel tower. To be honest, we allot most of our time just walking around and tasting the local delicacies we haven't tried before and we're happy with that.

Answer flow: I get excited. ► ~ How you prepare ► What you bring ► Opinion

From the moment I leave a place and step into a new one, I get really excited. I usually make a list of everything I would bring and pack them days before I leave. Also, I never miss to bring maps and foreign dictionaries to help me along the way. To me, the challenges or even danger of travelling is what makes it more exciting.

I do a lot of things daily. I wake up early afternoon from night shift, and then I read books and magazines. I also play games on my computer, surf the Internet and watch movies at home. In the evening, I work on my IT tasks in the office until dawn, and then I head home to sleep.

Answer flow: Early morning ► .i Why ► What else ► Why that is so

I feel I have the most energy during early morning, mainly because I try to sleep at least 8 hours a day, and I eat a full breakfast daily. I find that I am extra active after lunch and after dinner, maybe because I eat a high-sugar meal.

I make a timetable so that I can finish all my task for the day on time. Before I sleep at night, I list down all my activities for the next day and write down when I am supposed to accomplish them. The next day, I just follow that schedule.

Answer flow: Yes, I strongly think so. ► ~ Why ► What happens if you are not punctual

Yes, I strongly think showing up on time is important because it shows that you respect the other person you interact with. When you are always late, you tend to miss certain events or moments that are essential in life.

Answer flow: Work hours ► ► I Why ► What change ► How

I would have to change my work hours in my daily schedules if I could. I am really not coping with the late and extended hours so I would want early mornings duties. I was actually thinking of asking my boss about it.
