– A place that I enjoy visiting is Graz. Irs the second-largest city in Austria, with a population of around 300,000. It lies in the south-east of the country, in the state of Styria, which is a green, lush part of Austria.
There is lots to do in Graz.
It has several universities, so first and foremost irs a fantastic
place to be a student. Irs buzzing, with a good nightlife, good restaurants and a lively
cultural life. In fact, irs a UNESCO World Heritage Site and Europe’s capital of culture a few years back. If you climb up to the hill overlooking the old town, you have an amazing view of the city.
What strikes me most when I go up there is all the traditional, pale buildings with their red
roofs, and then right in the middle of it all, a remarkable piece of contemporary architecture, the museum of modern art. It looks like a huge sea cucumber, completely out of keeping with all the architecture around it, but of course totally in keeping with what it houses – modern art. I always think how brave it was of the Austrians to put it there, in the heart of the city, and how unlikely it was that that sort of thing would ever be allowed where I live! I really admire them for it and I think the building has its own kind of beauty.
The last time I went to Graz, they were having a wine festival.
People were tasting all kinds of wines from stalls on the street, very informally and chatting with friends while they drank. It was wonderful. How has it changed since I first visited it? Well, I would say it has undoubtedly become more trendy. Like I say, they have built a stunning new museum. They have also built an island in the river, which is actually a floating platform holding a cafe and a playground.
To go with the sea-cucumber theme, this one is shaped like a sea shell. I would say the local inhabitants have become more overtly proud of their city. too. It has received quite a bit of recognition in recent times. which has really placed Graz well and truly on the cultural map; something the inhabitants are always happy to talk to you about. In fact. that is something else I enjoy about going there: the local people are invariably friendly and helpful.
– When did you last go to Graz?
– I last went there the year before last. I wish I could go more often. but unfortunately work commitments mean I can·t.

Yes, last week I went to Dubai and I was there because I was visiting my best friend. So what I really like about Dubai was the fact that I was there visiting my friend and I found it very, a very great place. It’s not so far from my country, first of all, and it is in the UAE. It is near Abu Dhabi and I flew to the airport there. My friend, he met me, and we drove to Dubai. It was maybe one hour until the outskirts, then the traffic was very bad. In Dubai, you have to take the car everywhere.
We relaxed and went to the shopping malls, they are great, and the beaches. We chatted mainly. We haven’t seen each other for long time. And we went skiing! In the shopping mall there is a slope. It was interesting because it has many contrasts, because you have lots of poor people and lots of very, very rich people. There is no middle class there and the places you go, there is gold, too much gold and, on the other hand there are many people living there, they are immigrants.
