Model Answer:
Travelling is my hobby and I have visited many countries of the world with my 
dad. But I have never been to the United States of America, better referred as 
America or the U.S. This is a dreamland for me and I have a plan to visit the 
USA whenever there will be any chances. 
My dad is a businessman in Singapore and he travels in different parts of the 
world for his business purpose. Often I accompany him during the short trips. 
He has never been to out of Asia and Europe and I have already planned to 
company him if he has any plan to visit America for any of his business 
purposes. America is one of the large countries of the world and consists 50

states in total. The states are ruled by their respective authorities. The 
geographical location of the U.S is beneficial for the citizens. They can enjoy 
some exceptional weather pattern round the year. America is also famous for 
some of the large structures in the world, and now the entire nation has 
developed tremendously. This is the top most leading country of the world 
with modern facilities for its citizens. 
It is interesting that the country looks like a large cat on the world map but in 
reality, there are differences between the lying cat on the map and real life 
America. The country is inhabited by a good number of people and owns some 
historical events. America is separated from Alaska by Canada. The Hawaii 
islands are in the south-west of North America. This is the third largest country 
on the earth considering the land and water inside the country. The climate 
inside the country varies for its geographical variety. Often the weather is 
humid continental and sometimes it is humid subtropical. The early settlement 
in the country was done in the 14th century even before the discovery by 
Columbus in 1492. Since then, America has been a stakeholder of different 
history and events around the world. Now it is the most developed country in 
the world. 
Since America is a developed country, there are lots of chances to do 
something better. My dad usually deals with spices and he imports spices from 
distant parts of Europe and Asia to be sold in our wholesale shop here in 
Singapore. Moreover, he has some restaurants in Singapore which are doing 
well indeed. But I have a different plan. Generally, the spices my dad imports 
are used to make the foods delicious and if the imported spices could be used 
instead of selling, I believe the business would be more beneficial. Yes, I am 
planning to open a traditional restaurant in any of the states of America. The 
country is visited by the global people, and a large number of them are Asian, 
and thus the food tastes are not the same for everyone or everywhere. So, if I 
can open a restaurant which will sell traditional foods of some specific Asian 
countries that would be really interesting. Initially, I will pick the Asian dishes 
for the restaurants and then will move for the other culinary arts. 
To be frank, I want to visit America as this is the very best country in the world. 
I want to experience the living style of the people, their arts, cultures and 
norms, and to know about their secrets of success so that I also could be a 
successful man and by the same time could help my own country to grow like 
America. Besides, I have some business plans as well and I need to visit 
America to justify the prospects of the business there. I want to establish a

restaurant and in the case of failure, I will try to do something other business. I 
can supply traditional foods of Singapore to the restaurants or can also contact 
them to serve with any specific crops or ingredients and similar other things. I 
love to travel but it may sound unusual that I always try to recover the 
travelling costs by some ways. So, when I will be in America, I will try to 
assemble the costs. Planning for a business and implementing the ideas in real 
life situations in America will help me to recover the expenses I made on my 
trip.
