I traveled through a city seven years ago. When I was a child, I learnt from a book that a 16-year-old girl had traveled through Europe, so I hoped I could travel through another city one day. My parents finally agreed with me. After that, I began to plan my trip.That Saturday morning, I took a train to Willow City, North Dakota. It is a small city. The main street has two bars, one post office, three banks, a clothes store, an old cinema and two supermarkets.In New York if we are out, it’s not often that we see anyone we know. Here, it’s just the opposite (相反的). They can even tell you who is the owner of a car. Everybody who lives here thinks this small city is quiet and safe.Now I plan to visit my country by myself, and I will also write travel diaries after traveling every city.( )26.
