5 Suggested answers:1 Going on holiday with your

parents probably involves hotels and organized travel. They probably won’t want to do inter-railing or hitchhiking. Whereas, if you go on holiday with friends you are more likely to go backpacking, inter-railing or hitchhiking.

2 You will probably see more of the countryside and meet more people inter-railing. Travelling by plane is much faster but you probably see less of the countries you fly over.

3 If you spend a holiday at the coast you may meet new people, especially foreigners or tourists. However, you are less likely to know people there. Whereas, spending a holiday in your family village probably means that you already know many of the people there.
