Vacation : Cologne, Germany Vs. Kingston, Jamaica

The sugary sand of a Punta Cana beach is so soft, so perfectly golden that you might think it was synthetic. My favorite thing to do was build enormous sand castles along the shore as the sun blazed down on me, the sand glistened in the sun like an eight karat diamond ring. The resorts are laid out like mini cities, completely inclusive in every way, with many of them offering so many amenities that it made it impossible to partake of everything available,

After visiting the country of Jamaica this past summer, I realized how dissimilar some countries can be from the United States. Jamaica was not unlike the United States in a terrible way, but the disparities made me additionally interested in researching about the beautiful and culture-rich country of Jamaica. Even though the majority of facts about the history and culture of the United States and Jamaica are dissimilar, I was surprised to come across some similarities among these two countries.

If you were forced to pick your paradise, where do you think your thoughts would take you? Would you go to the quaint wooden cabin in Michigan that has been in the family for years? Or would you think of your cozy apartment a top a skyscraper in your favorite concrete jungle? Without a second thought, my mind rushes to Pawley’s Island, South Carolina. As locals describe it best, the “elegantly shabby” beachside town 40 minutes from Charleston has been my chosen vacation spot since childhood. Between the hammock shops, crabbing in the creeks and ghost stories, there is always something to entertain you on the island. With only the best memories there, never did I think that there would be something to hold me back from indulging in the lazy

In Hawaii there are many things that bring happiness to mind such as the extravagant smells, not to mention the beautiful sights, and most of all the spectacular taste in the exquisite food they have in Hawaii.

I normally don't like going to the popular beaches because they are always crowded with people. I enjoy going to the beach and being able to enjoy it without tons of people around me. That’s one of the reasons I love Assateague Island. I can just sit and relax and feel the sun on my skin, hear the wind, and feel the grains

As I cruised to the islands of Turks and Caicos, Dominican Republic and Aruba, I realized the beauty of traveling. Sailing across open waters, and stopping on white sand beaches was something I could never forget. Breathing in the fresh air was nothing short of amazing. Experiencing these crystal clear waters was a once in a lifetime opportunity, and something I could only get from exploring new parts of the world.

Getting around a large city such as Thunder Bay might seem difficult, but it does have a public transportation system

There are a lot of different countries in the world. Some have many similarities and some have few similarities. English is the international language and everyone should try and learn this language if they want to communicate with the rest of the world. Most people think of the United Kingdom and the United States of America, as the english speaking countries. This is not the only English-speaking countries, with English as the national language. In this text I will take a closer look at a country that has english as the national language. I will look at the differences and similarities that this country has with The United Kingdom. The country is surprisingly small and has a population of approximately 3 million people. It is a small island and the largest English-speaking country in the Caribbean. It was a British colony from 1665 to 1962 and that is probably one of the reasons why most of the people there speak english. The country i am talking about is obviously Jamaica.

 Singapore is a small country, so there is not a lot of things for tourists to see and visit.

     Picture a beautiful city surrounded by tall skyscrapers soaring into the clouds and the beautiful statue of liberty standing still on the water. You walk down the street passing hundreds of little shops and restaurants, all the while you are taken a back by the breathtaking beauty of the city that you are gazing upon. Now picture laying on the beach at sunset listening to the ocean waves. The air is crisp and the smell of saltwater is bitter sweet. The locations I’m describing are New York City and Myrtle Beach.

Americans are among the wealthiest people in the world. Most of us US citizens do not fully realize how much poverty is out there in the world. Traveling internationally is a privilege that is often dreamed about by many people worldwide. We see postcards and pictures of places wishing that we could see the palm trees, the turquoise water, and the sandy beaches. But what the postcards do not portray is the dark and mysterious world that lies behind the pictures. The pictures made me feel very excited about traveling to Jamaica. I knew that it was a poorer country. I had seen mission trip videos from the past. For many years, I have longed to go there. The

Summer is coming to a close, but that doesn't mean vacations at beaches are out of the question. For the average person, anywhere with a beach sounds like the perfect vacation destination. While almost any sun-soaked body of sand sounds heavenly to just about anybody, some beaches are just no match for the ones ranking at the very top. Whether in Brazil, Italy or Spain - taking a well needed vacation at any one of these places would be the smartest decision of your life.

The Bahamas is a truly beautiful place, with the welcoming culture, the wonder-filled sights to see and the extreme activities, all reasons why it is the destination of my dream vacation.

This is my dream vacation, wouldn't it be yours

Let's go to Puerto Rico, the beaches on the tropical island will surely make you over look their citizens in need.

Let's head East, the mesmerizing and surreal castles and historical monuments will surely make one forget the country is home to millions of slaves in modern day. Welcome to India.
