Any classroom activities related to “travelling//holidays”?

Hey — any classroom activities/icebreakers related to “travelling//holidays” for esl pre-intermediate students?
I’ve got “airplane competition” already.

Where In The World Ice Breaker:

Technology and transportation in the modern world have given us the opportunity to learn so much more, often first hand, about the rest of the world. If you haven’t had the privilege of global traveling, you may have experienced the thrill of conversing with foreigners online or working side-by-side with them in your industry. The world becomes a smaller place the more we get to know each other.

When you have a gathering of people from various countries, this ice breaker is a breeze, but it’s also fun when participants are all from the same place and know each other well. Everyone is capable of dreams that cross borders.

To make this ice breaker kinetic, require that one of the three clues be a physical motion (think PictionaryTM). For example, skiing, golfing, painting, fishing, etc.

Ideal Size

Up to 30. Divide larger groups and a 30 minute activity
