Okay, now I want to talk about an expensive activity that is very curious and amazing for me. I do this kind of activity every year. Approximately four years ago, I suggested to my grandfather that we travel to France because France is outstanding among other countries. We went to this country and enjoyed our time there. Then, two years ago, I again suggested to my grandfather that we go to Italy because Italy is famous for its meals and products, especially pizza. I am keen on doing some curious and unbelievable activities, and this trip allowed us to try some interesting meals and products. My wish was to taste the pizza because Italian pizza is renowned all over the world. Every year, a lot of tourists visit this country for its pizza. When I ate this pizza, I felt over the moon. This activity was expensive because we went there during New Year, and at that time, prices increased significantly.
