Some say that young people should take a break between school and university to go travelling and learn more about the world. Others say that it is better for them to go straight to university from school, and then go travelling when they have finished their studies. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion. Give reasons for your answer and include any relevant examples from your own knowledge and experience.
