I had never travelled alone until l had a visa to Australia. I had many feelings
back then. l was afraid of travelling alone on the plane for a long distance as l
rarely travelled by airplane within my own country. I imagined many worse
things that could happen to me while travelling. I was afraid that l could not
Communicate in English well enough for australians to understand me.
However, l also had this thought in my mind that once l stepped on the plane ,it
would be a new life for me and a new opportunity to be in a new environment, to
improve my English as l wished. It’s been five years now here in Australia. I
was glad that l made the decision to travel alone far away from my own comfort
zone.
