Compisition: Travel Is The Best Teacher

Hi, teachers,
I tried hard to make it complete, but I know I wrote it just by my mother-tongue logic.
What's worse, I can't judge it by myself. I think it somewhat irrelevant to its topic, but I don't know how to improve.
If anyone could correct it for me, I am really appreciated! Thank you!


Travel Is The Best Teacher

          With the development of transport technology, it is much easier to travel around the world.
Therefore, we can not only learn many things by reading, but also take a look at the landscapes
and experience the cultural differences in person. That is, no matter what books are telling, we can
judge it by ourselves rather than take it all in.

          My parents and I often go mountain climbing on weekends. Wind blowing, trees whispering,
flowers in full bloom, I wonder eagerly who creates these all. That is why I take interest in biology
so much. Besides, I can be close to the insects and observe the looks that they really are
instead of staring at pictures on books. Though I have never been abroad, I am convinced
that someday I will go and learn much out of the travel.

Thank you very much!! ^_^
This is my first time to post my compisition in the forum, and I am so happy to receive your reply.
With this corrected one, I can review the words I used and the way I expressed myself.
Hope someday I will be able to write and share something interesting to everyone in this forum, not just ask some correction for me!
( But it will take a very long time, I think. )
