My dream festival is a Free
Travelling Festival, because I love travelling abroad very much, but I don't
have enough time or money to travel around the world at the moment.

The Free Travelling Festival
is a student exchange scheme for Hong Kong citizens who are under 18. Eligible applicants can apply to go to the
country of their choice, such as England, Japan, the USA or France - you name
it! Students would start their journey
in March every year. It would be a good
chance for young people to explore other cities, as this fantastic plan is sponsored
by the government. All the expenses of
successful applicants would be covered by the government. This festival provides chances for us to learn
more about the cultures of the other countries. Students could see new things and learn new
languages like Japanese - or even French. I can imagine that those applicants lucky
enough to go on such a trip would be very happy to see the clear skies, green
fields, blue oceans and the fresh air in other countries. What a fantastic trip!
I hope that this imaginary
festival will become a reality someday; then I could learn things outside the
classroom - for example in a botanical garden. I really hope this could happen, and have even
decided to write a letter to persuade our government to run this scheme for us!
