Travel: the other side of the coin

Most of us have, at some point in our lives, experienced the joys of travel. We go to 1.____________ to pick up our brochures. We book a two-week 2.___________ with flights and accommodation included (or if we are 3.____________, we make our own way to the country and travel around from place to
place with a rucksack on our back). We make sure we have all the right currency, our passport and any 4____________ that are necessary to get us into the country. We go to the airport and 5.______________________ .We strap ourselves into our tiny 6____________ aircraft seats and a few hours later we 7____________ from the aircraft, strange new sights, smells and sounds greeting us. Nowadays, it seems, the whole world goes on holiday at once: the age of  8.____________ is in full swing!

But for the great majority of people around the world, travel for them is done in the face of great adversity and hardship. They never get to indulge in an 9____________ holiday in a luxury hotel with all meals and drinks included. They never get to explore the lush Amazon rain forest or the frozen wastes of the Arctic on an 10. _______________ holiday. For them, travel is a matter of life and death. I refer, of course, to all the 11 _________________ escaping from their own countries, or the 12______________ , moved from one part of their country to another by an uncaring government, or 13 forced to find a job and seek a living wherever they can.

Can you imagine anything worse than the misery these people must face? Let’s not confuse them with those 14___________ , who choose to live in another country and often have nice houses and high salaries. These people are simply desperate to survive. As well as losing their homes because of war or famine or other natural disasters, they must come to terms with their new environment:for many, the 15___________ can be too great. And while many countries with an open policy on 16________________ will welcome them in with open arms, others will simply turn them away. These people become 17__________ , unwanted and
unwelcome. Even if they manage to get into a country, they will often be 18_____________or repatriated. Their future is uncertain.

Something to think about, perhaps, the next time you are 19_______ to your five-star hotel by a palm-fringed beach or sitting in a coach on an 20_________ to a pretty castle in the countryside.
