Cultural Tip
In French, ‘avoir envie de’ is the go‑to way to talk about a personal desire, and it is more informal than ‘vouloir’. The adverb ‘plus’ can mean ‘more’ or ‘no more’ depending on intonation, so make sure to stress the positive meaning when you want to say ‘more’. Also, avoid placing ‘plus’ before the infinitive; it must follow the verb (voyager plus, not plus voyager).
