When Jane and Clive Green stopped working, they decided to go on a trip to Spain in their yacht. They expected to be away for about a week - but in the end, they continued travelling for sixteen years! After they reached Spain in their ten-metre yacht, they did not fancy returning home, so they kept sailing. After crossing the Atlantic, they stopped to explore the islands of the Caribbean for a while. Then they continued to sail west around the world. They ended up visiting 56 countries. They particularly enjoyed swimming with seals near the Galápagos Islands. However, they remembered feeling very anxious near Somalia because a boat would not stop following them. It was actually a fishing boat with an injured man on board, so Jane offered to help him before they continued on their way. They managed to pay for their trip by selling their house back in the UK. They could afford to buy food, but they ran out of money on an island near Fiji. Fortunately, a local woman agreed to give them a box of fruit and vegetables in exchange for some clothes.
If I had been on a trip like this, I would have enjoyed it. Traveling the world on a yacht for sixteen years would be an exciting and adventurous experience, with the opportunity to explore different cultures, landscapes, and wildlife. Swimming with seals near the Galápagos Islands would be a memorable experience and visiting 56 countries would be an incredible achievement.
(Nếu tôi đã có một chuyến đi như thế này, tôi sẽ rất thích nó. Du hành khắp thế giới trên một chiếc du thuyền trong mười sáu năm sẽ là một trải nghiệm thú vị và phiêu lưu, với cơ hội khám phá các nền văn hóa, phong cảnh và động vật hoang dã khác nhau. Bơi cùng hải cẩu gần Quần đảo Galápagos sẽ là một trải nghiệm đáng nhớ và đến thăm 56 quốc gia sẽ là một thành tích đáng kinh ngạc.)
