3 things that i like 


 My favorite music in reggae because it has been the most easy way to feeling relaxed and i think that to be in calm it`s more important that to be concerned and in this way I have never been worried about things without worth .





    I really like traveling because i have always learned new things about the culture , food and history in all the places that i have been .

For example , providencia is the most beautiful place that i have ever seen because there are the most cleaner beaches in colombia with a really blue ocean and it have more amazing views than the others islands .

I love cartagena too, it is not more beautiful than providencia but is one of the most interesting places in Colombia and that is why I have been there many times .



  I like the cine a lot, I have been watching movies since I was a child and it has always been one of my hobbies .



My favorite movies are ¨V for vendetta¨ and ¨The imaginarium of doctor Parnassus¨ , my favorite actress is Natalie portman and my favorite director is Darren aronofski .

I like so much the drama movies and I have always prefered watch movies with my friends because do it with company its better than do it alone . I have enjoyed to talk about the movie with someone.

MY FIRST DRIVING LESSON


MY FIRST DRIVING LESSON

After to pray many times my father acceded to give me my first driving lesson as a driver! He always sat me on his legs and both pretended that I was driving; I drove like this until my 12 years old.

All the family we went to visit mi sister in Apartadó, a city in the Urabá Antioqueño, she worked there for 3 years, there, my father decided give me the lesson, was very hard convince him because he tried to teach  to my sisters but was a bad idea,  he is extremely impatient and my sisters are very sensible, so the classes ended in fights  and tears  generally,  but I more laid-back and peaceful than my sisters so I knew that would be the exception.




So stared  the lesson and both we were nervous but I was very exiting too, since I remember I like the cars and  to drive. Everything goes very well until a motorcycle appeared and crushed into the car!! I´ve never been so scared, my father loves his cars, and this was a new one. I get out the car immediately and we found that the motorcycle driver was more scared that me  and was strangely kind,  all this because  he doesn´t had  drive license and SOAT,  so he gave us 100.000 $ and he get away, My driving lesson ended and I was very sad, my father was very quiet and said me that wasn´t my fault; We came back to my sister´s house and started to clean the car and the scar faded away quickly!
I´ve never feel so relived! The car was excellent and my reputation as a driver too!

A PLACE TO LIVE.. BY DAVID GOMEZ.


Hello everybody, I hope you are doing alright

 Have you been on the beach?

I want you know that the sea is the wonders thing in the world. But you will see a real paradise it is called Hampton beach, it is one of the four “superstar beaches” in united states. I have been there; it has been the greatest experience in my life.

It has the cleanest water in United States for this reason is the safest beach to swim there.

I have had the opportunity of go there, it was amazing experience. The water was cold, but its color was fantastic.

Probably, you have gone to many different places but for me Hampton beach has been the most beautiful place in the world.

Also I have learned from my own experience that you should spend more time there, because it is really big place and it takes about 2 days knowing the place.

I have heard that when you found a place that you like, you have found the door of the sky.

I am sure that it happened with me.

You should go and enjoy that place, if you do not believe me, take a look to this video; you will see how wonderful this place is.       

I hope you like it; remember that when you have enjoyed a place it is because you have felt that you are alive.

My travel to Perú by Estefanía Maya


My travel to Perú

Perú is a country with many thinks to know because it has different climates. Lima is a coast city and rains twice a year, but usually the sky is cloudy, Cusco is the coldest, it is 3.400 meters on the level of sea, some travelers can have “soroche” for the height and native people have llamas, alpacas and sheep. Puno is so cold; people that live in the Titikaka Lake suffer rheumatism. Arequipa is the second biggest city, is cold too and has beautiful old houses. Nazca is the hottest, is a big dessert where rains three days a year. Ica is a city in middle of desert and is very hot too. In this country is possible know and do a lot of things for its diversity.
My family and me traveled by plain to El Callao, no directly to Lima that’s why Lima doesn’t have airport, after we went to Lima there we slept in a hostel because is more economic than hotels; in this place we traveled in “combi” to the plaza de armas in the center of the city, we saw temples and antique constructions, in the night we visited bars or shopping centers. The most beautiful in Lima has been its historic architecture and its gardens.
 This picture was took in Lima

After, we flew to Cusco when visited Sacsayhuaman and walked for the city, this is extremely cold and is the highest city in Perú. When we were in a park and started to ascend, my cousin Manuela, immediately felts sick, dizzy and nauseating, we gave coca’s tea and she felts better. She has ever been sick with the height.
 This picture was in sacsayhuaman (Cusco)

This picture was took in Cusco

To arrived to Machu Picchu we visited other important Inca constructions like Pisac and Ollantaytambo in the second place we took the unique mean of transport to arrived to Aguas Calientes, the train. Aguas Calientes is the nearest town to Machu Picchu and is really little. Machu Picchu is the biggest and the most important Inca city; it isn’t a city in ruins, is like the Incas made it but without roof.
 This is Pisac

This is Ollantaytambo

  In Machu Picchu with Manuela and Carolina

In the titikaka lake (Puno)



Our next stop was in Nazca, this is the biggest dessert in Perú and has lines and geoglifos these are draws made for the Indians or maybe for people of other planets. After we traveled to Ica, and went to an oasis near of this city. Finally we returned to Lima to flew to Colombia. This has been a winderful experience un my life

MY BEST EXPERIENCE

The best experience that I have had in my life , has been travel to Dubai.

Dubai is one of the cities most prestigious, luxurious and large I've known, is located on the southeast corner of the Arabian Peninsula. The UAE is a desert country the size of South Carolina, bordering the Persian Gulf, Saudi Arabia and the Gulf of Oman. The UAE have one of the highest living standards in the world.


The people in this city are very funny, very friendly, very warm, and hospitable. On the other hand the populations most are men, because in this city the discrimination of women is very marked.

 





When we got to Dubai, we met the most prestigious hotel of the city "burj al arab" overnight cost is being 500 and 700 euro’s, way too expensive, but this hotel was wonderful and very large. When we arrived at hotel we moved and went down to eat. Went to the restaurant, it was indescribable, woo oh! And best of all, this hotel had a huge aquarium.

Next day we met the city ... bars, clubs, discos, beaches, parks, shopping and much more... was an execelent experience

This is a restaurant……. The best for me




we went to party in the night,was fantastic.also in the evening my family and i went to the beaches  of duabi.





in conclusion this was one of the most wonderful experiences I have had in my life and I enjoyed this tour a lot with my family.

 LIVING THE COLOMBIAN CARIBBEAN

BY SANTIAGO MUNERA





one of my best experience has been travel to santa marta and la guajira. everything began when the vacations started, my father had bought new car, and one day before we started the trip, we bought a lot of food to eat into the car during the trip,












  



 so we woke up at 3:00 am, my sister and my mother continued sleeping in the car, at first, the travel was from Medellin to Santa Marta, so we spent like 9 hours travelling, we took a lot of photos, listened music, and looked the map to knew where we were, my father knows all the Caribbean of Colombia, i mean, he said in 200 km we are going to arrive to pailitas, and 
200 kms later we arrived to pailitas,i have never seen another person like him,







 when we arrived to Santa Marta  we made a reservation in the Costa azul hotel, that hotel is spectacular, here you can feel like a king, that hotel have one of the best attention that i have received, also there is a giant pool, and i didn't go to the beach, i spent all the day on the pool,

















in santa marta we went to tayronas park, the rodadero beach and taganga's bay, all these palces are very special, but the tayronas park is the best, here i have seen the best landscape in my life,




















 four days later we left santa marta and we went to la guajira and visited, dibulla, maicao, rioacha, and el cabo de la vela, these palces are really nice , maicao is mix of cultures you can find, wayus, Middle East people and combians, venezuelans etc, here we visited the mezquita, the biggest mesquita in colombia and the second in south america, Dibulla is a little town near a river and the beach at the same time and its a beatiful place









And el cabo de la vela is unique, this little town is in the middle of the dessert, here there isn't electricity, so at night you can see all the stars in the sky, but when we left el cabo de la vela i was very nervous, because you can lost in the dessert








finally  we came back to medellin, i was very, very tired and i slept all the next day
