Imagine you are living in a moving house. Inside the house, there is a small kitchen, bathroom and bedroom. Everything you need is close at hand.
In the US, you can really see these moving houses on the road. They are called recreational vehicles (RVs, 房车). People call them houses on wheels. When it’s holiday time, the whole family often gets into this lovely house and goes out for a journey across the country.
Not like a real house, this home on the road is small for a family who has to spend every hour of every day together. But the best thing about it is that it changes your journey into a free exploration (探险).
You can drive as long as you like without worrying about finding hotels and restaurants. Or you can just stop somewhere nice and stay for a few weeks. You may also meet other families who are also on road trips. Together, you take out your tents and snacks. It’s camping time with a lot of talk and laughter!
Of course, RVs can be inconvenient (不便利的). They can sometimes break down and you have to spend time fixing them up. But this kind of road journey still wins people’s hearts because they can go wherever they want and whenever they would like.
1. What is an RV like ?
