    Hello, ladies and gentlemen. It gives me great honor to introduce our speaker for today’s lecture, Dr. Phillip Wood. Dr. Wood, professor of sociology at University of California,(16)has written numerous books about travelling plans, which has been translated into more than eight languages and popular around the world.
Dr. Wood:
    Thank you for that introduction. I feel happy to meet you here. On your next vacation, where do you want to stay here in the US? Or maybe you would like to go somewhere outside of the US but you don’t want to cross any oceans. Or maybe you would prefer to see Asia, Africa or Europe. There are many destinations to choose from, both stateside and internationally.(17)First, perhaps you need to decide on a climate or if weather doesn’t bother you, then where is that one place that you would like to go?
    There are many places to see in California. Maybe you would prefer to go skiing in Colorado? How about seeing the historical sites of the south or maybe the northeast? Have you considered Alaska? There are many different places that you could visit, and each one brings something different to the table.(18)Here in America you can see many places that have affected the condition of our country.
    If you go to central or South America then you can see thriving cultures set against what are still considered to be the wild and uninhabited. You can see something fairly similar in South Africa but with a whole different culture and with an extremely different kind of wild. Perhaps the bustling cities of northern Africa, sometimes called the Middle East, are more to your taste, if you like to live close to the edge.(19)What about the ancient cultures mixed with cutting edge technology in parts of Asia? Then you have Europe, with some of the most travelled areas in the world.
    Each area does bring a totally different perspective in so that within each general area there are more specific areas. If you are looking for something as vague as someplace with a small population and minimal inhabitation then you can look at parts of Australia, Asia, Canada, South America, South Africa, northern Europe and Russia.
    If you want bustling cities then you have your pick of many on every continent and just about every country. There are many places that could be suggested: Rome, Paris, the Amazon in Brazil, the white peaks of the Andes, London, Northern Ireland, Manila, the Outback, take your pick. It is probably safe to say that most people have an idea of where they want to go, but if you don’t, take a look around—there are literally millions of places.
    Hope you have a good journey! Thanks for listening!
