× Yes, I often enjoy scenic views from the window of train or buses.
✓ Yes, I often enjoy scenic views from the window of a train or a bus.
Incorrect use of singular/plural and articles: 'window of train or buses' mixes singular and plural and omits articles. Use consistent singular forms with the indefinite article for general reference: 'a train or a bus'. Suggestions: use 'a' before singular countable nouns and keep noun number consistent.
× One night travelling and I like to see the scenic views.
✓ When traveling at night, I like to see the scenic views.
Sentence structure and verb tense: 'One night travelling and I like' is ungrammatical. Use a subordinate clause to indicate time: 'When traveling at night, I like...'. This keeps present habitual tense 'I like' appropriate. Suggestion: start with 'When' to show time and use continuous form 'traveling' as a gerund in the clause.
× So umm, when I traveling I love to uh, see the views.
✓ So, when I'm traveling, I love to see the views.
Verb + -ing / auxiliary missing: 'when I traveling' lacks the auxiliary verb 'am'. For present continuous use 'I am traveling' or contraction 'I'm traveling'. Suggestion: include appropriate auxiliary with present participle.
× Ah yes, of course umm of umm.
✓ Ah yes, of course.
This fragment is filler speech; grammatically, extra 'of umm' is redundant and incorrect. Remove unnecessary words for clarity. Suggestion: eliminate fillers in written responses.
× Although I don't take photos while I'm traveling but I have a spare time and or I travel by train or plane.
✓ Although I don't take photos while I'm traveling, I sometimes have spare time when I travel by train or plane.
Incorrect conjunction use and sentence structure: 'Although... but' is a redundancy; use either 'although' or 'but'. 'have a spare time' is wrong article usage and collocation—use 'have spare time' or 'have some spare time'. 'and or' is unclear; choose one connector. Rewriting clarifies meaning and maintains present continuous/time reference. Suggestion: use one contrastive conjunction, correct collocations, and simplify 'train or plane' choice.
× I often enjoy taking photos of the beautiful scenery.
✓ I often enjoy taking photos of the beautiful scenery.
This sentence is correct. 'enjoy taking' correctly uses verb + -ing form. No change needed.
× I like both, but if I had to choose one I would prefer mountains.
✓ I like both, but if I had to choose one I would prefer the mountains.
Article use with general nouns: when referring to mountains as a general environment, 'the mountains' is more natural than 'mountains'. Suggestion: use 'the' for well-known natural features in general reference.
× That is because there are lots of wildlife in the mountains and I enjoy observing the birds or animals in the mountain and taking photo of them.
✓ That is because there is lots of wildlife in the mountains, and I enjoy observing the birds and animals in the mountains and taking photos of them.
Combination of issues: 'there are lots of wildlife' is wrong because 'wildlife' is a singular, uncountable noun requiring 'there is' or rephrase to 'lots of wild animals'. Also inconsistent plural/singular: 'in the mountain' should be 'in the mountains' to match earlier. 'taking photo' needs plural 'photos'. Also use 'birds and animals' rather than 'birds or animals' when listing. Suggestion: use 'there is' with uncountable 'wildlife' or change to 'wild animals'; keep plural forms consistent and pluralize 'photos'.
