Why do I like travelling

I like travelling but I am not really a well travelled man yet. There is nothing better that going somewhere you have never been before, discovering all the things there are to discover.

I am used to travelling since childhood. When I was 7 I have already visited 2 countries, Turkey and Italy. By the way, did you know that wild animals in Turkey are used to the sight of people taking photos of them? When I was living in Italy, I gradually got used to sleeping under a mosquito net. Returning back to my topic, I want to say that traveling is a chance for people to see other nations, their cultures/traditions and the landscapes in other countries. It also gives you other opportunities such as learning foreign languages and meeting new friends.

To sum up, I want to say that traveling is great because it really opens up your horizons and exposes you to new experiences. It is really a shame that some people are not used to travel nowadays.

Should cloning be banned?

Nowadays many people around the world are talking about cloning. Cloning has it's own pros and cons. But should it be banned?

Yeah sure, cloning is really useful if you need fresh organs for sick people. But to clone a whole human is kinda.... kinda unrealistic and unethical.

Some people are too sentimental and a loss of their favourite pet would make them really upset. And in that case cloning might help them. You can clone a pet that has died and it will make the person happier.

I am not against cloning but I think it will not advance in the next 15 years. We still have other technologies that we need to improve.

To sum it up I would say that cloning is not bad enough to ban it. But think of todays situations. There are Siberian Tigers who are on the verge of extinction and yet scientist clone sheep which you can see almost everywhere.
