Sitges Travel Guide, Spain. Tourism Information. With over three miles (5km) of golden shoreline, Sitges is the perfect weekend break for tourists wishing to experience Spanish resorts without straying too far from Barcelona. One of the most popular holiday resort towns south of Barcelona, Sitges is 21 miles (45km) from the city. With more than 17 sand beaches, many of them with EU Blue Flag status, it is easy to see why Sitges has been called 'the playground of Barcelona'. Renowned for its swinging nightlife, Sitges attracts thousands of holidaymakers, including day-trippers from Barcelona, many of them young and well-heeled. The city has a reputation for being gay-friendly, expensive, and decidedly arty, said to be the town where the modernist movement began when it attracted artists such as Bohemian mystic Santiago Rusinol and later the likes of Salvador Dali. Rusinol's home in the town has been turned into a museum, displaying some of his works. Beachgoers and holidaymakers in Sitges can enjoy a number of activities and sights in and around the town. Sitges also plays host to the popular Sitges Film Festival, which specializes in fantasy and horror film genres. Most people, however, visit Sitges primarily for the beautiful sandy beaches. Between the church at one end of the town and the Terramar Hotel at the other extremity there are nine breakwaters, each sheltering gently sloping golden beaches equipped with showers, refreshment kiosks and sun-loungers for rent

Padre Island, Texas, USA. Padre Island National Seashore Tourism. Every March, like clockwork, students cram into cars and head to South Padre Island for spring break fun in the sun and 24-hour beach bashes. While the island is still home to spring breakers for just over a month, the area has seen a rebirth of sorts as a popular family vacation destination. That's because South Padre, or SPI, delivers with wide sandy beaches, sparkling blue water and a mixture of fun activities for kids of all ages. But there's more to SPI than beach revelry. Kiteboarding is a favorite pastime and several sports outfitters offer deep-sea fishing trips and dolphin-watching excursions. The consistently warm weather also seduces northern Texans seeking refuge from the cold. And it's understandable: Just a day's drive from major Texas cities like Houston and Dallas, this seaside paradise is right in the state's own backyard.

Yucatan Peninsula Travel Guide, Caribbean. Maya Environment, Tourism. Mexico. If you're dreaming of sunny days in Mexico, I get it... this magical destination has long been a top choice for a getaway to paradise. It's gained a reputation over the years for parties, sun, tacos and margaritas on the beach. Tourist hubs, like Cancun, have capitalized on these experiences leading many vacationers to kitschy all-inclusive resorts. But, don't be mistaken. While you're sure to enjoy some of the best tacos, tequila, and turquoise waters on your trip, Mexico holds so many more treasures to be discovered. Many of them lie just outside these resort areas in the Yucatán Peninsula, the place I admiringly refer to as the "Magical Land of the Maya." The magic of the Yucatán starts with an incredible array of natural wonders, historical and archaeological sites, great food, and a laid-back vibe. The peninsula, which consists of Yucatán state and Quintana Roo states also touts some of Mexico's most accessible, safest and cheapest destinations for adventuring out independently or with a small group. Few Mexican destinations can dazzle you with ancient Maya ruins, azure Caribbean and Gulf of Mexico waters and colonial cities all in one fell swoop. Actually, there's only one the Yucatán Peninsula. The peninsula comprises parts of Belize and Guatemala, as well as three separate Mexican states: Yucatán, Quintana Roo and Campeche. Quintana Roo is probably the best known thanks to the tourism mega-destinations of Cancún, Tulum and Playa del Carmen, where millions flock annually to get their share of vitamin D on brochure-perfect beaches or resort infinity pools. But head just a couple of hours west and you hit Mérida, the capital of Yucatán state, whose colonial architecture and contemporary restaurants are a satisfying change of pace, not to mention the many cenotes (freshwater springs) nearby. Neighboring Campeche state is home to mind-blowing Maya ruins galore. This entire compact peninsula holds wonderful, varied and accessible travel surprises. Life's a Beach: Without a doubt, this corner of Mexico boasts some of the most beautiful stretches of coastline you'll ever see which explains why beaches get top billing on the peninsula. On the east coast you have the famous coral-crushed white sands and turquoise waters of the Mexican Caribbean, while up north are sleepy fishing villages with sandy streets and wildlife-rich surroundings rimming the southern edge of the Gulf of Mexico. For the ultimate beach-bumming experience you can hit one of several low-key islands off the Caribbean coast, where life moves at a refreshingly slow pace. Maya Ruins Galore: You can't help but feel awestruck when standing before the pyramids, temples and ball courts of one of the most brilliant pre-Hispanic civilizations of all time. Yes, those Maya certainly knew a thing or two about architecture and they were no slouchers when it came to astronomy, science and mathematics either. Witnessing their remarkable achievements firsthand leaves a lasting impression on even the most jaded traveler. The peninsula is chock-full of these Maya archaeological sites, a few of which were built right on the coast. Nature's Playground: The Yucatán always keeps nature enthusiasts thoroughly entertained. With colorful underwater scenery like no other, it offers some of the best diving and snorkeling sites in the world. Then you have the many biosphere reserves and national parks that are home to a wide array of animal and plant life. Just to give you an idea of what's in store: you can swim with whale sharks, observe crocodiles and monkeys, help liberate newborn sea turtles, and spy hundreds upon hundreds of bird species in mangroves and jungles. Culture & Fun.: For those who need more than just pretty beaches and ancient ruins, you'll be glad to know that cultural and recreational activities are plentiful in the Yucatán. On any given day you may come across soulful

Mi querido lector, Esto no es una guía turística, sino un viaje a mi mente. Los invito a seguirme en mi viaje que hice hace 20 años. Estoy compartiendo mi diario, visión del mundo y filosofía con ustedes durante una estadía de dos semanas en Malta. ¿Qué tan buena fue la clase de inglés que recibí en la escuela nocturna en Berlín? ¿Qué pasaría si pudiera aplicar mi pequeño inglés todos los días, para aprender sin presión, como un juego, y el sol está mirando? ¿Qué pasa con el aprendizaje auténtico, los viajes educativos y la vida en familia anfitriona? ¿Cómo tratarían a un alemán en Malta? ¿Había hospitalidad real? Para variar, sería yo quien hablaría inglés y no mi presumida profesora de inglés frente a la clase de la cámara de tortura llamada escuela. Llegará el día en que un insensible sistema educativo basado en la presión psicológica y los exámenes deba mostrar su verdadera cara. ¿Cuánta creatividad e innovación nos queda a los que hemos sobrevivido? ¿Es su terror psicológico un signo de decadencia social, ética y cultural? El agente de viajes se sorprendió de la obstinación con la que un neurótico de la ciudad de Berlín insistía en una habitación con un escritorio y una silla y la propia Malta. Me recomendó Irlanda, la isla verde, para aprender el inglés perfecto. El inglés de Malta, explicó, sería arrastrado y el precio más alto pagado por Irlanda estaría justificado. Sorprendentemente, este no fue el caso, y valió la pena no darse por vencido en el primer no. La vida es demasiado corta para no ser libre. El inglés es uno de los idiomas oficiales en Malta y fue un viaje económico. Los malteses que conocí hablaban un inglés de primera. Y hasta el amor se me mostró en diferentes rostros. En lugar del verde, me esperaba la isla amarilla. ¡Vamos!

Marocco Dall'incipit del libro: Lo stretto di Gibilterra è forse di tutti gli stretti quello che separa più nettamente due paesi più diversi, e questa diversità appare anche maggiore andando a Tangeri da Gibilterra. Qui ferve ancora la vita affrettata, rumorosa e splendida delle città europee; e un viaggiatore di qualunque parte d'Europa sente l'aria della sua patria nella comunanza d'una infinità d'aspetti e di consuetudini. A tre ore di là, il nome del nostro continente suona quasi come un nome favoloso; cristiano significa nemico, la nostra civiltà è ignorata o temuta o derisa; tutto, dai primi fondamenti della vita sociale fino ai più insignificanti particolari della vita privata, è cambiato; e scomparso fin anche ogni indizio della vicinanza d'Europa. S'è in un paese sconosciuto, al quale nulla ci lega e dove tutto ci resta da imparare. Dalla spiaggia si vede ancora la costa europea, ma il cuore se ne sente già smisuratamente lontano, come se quel breve tratto di mare fosse un oceano e quei monti azzurri un'illusione. Nello spazio di tre ore, è seguita intorno a noi una delle più meravigliose trasformazioni a cui si possa assistere sulla terra.

In the summer of 2008 I set out on an adventure with fourteen strangers. We came together in Alaska, to take part in a NOLS course that would send us into the heart of the Alaskan wilderness, in Wrangell St. Elias National Park. For three weeks we backpacked through the harsh wilderness, carrying our food and our gear on our backs and learning how to survive, and thrive, in the wild. This book contains my journal entries from our expedition and describes the events that transpired, the people I grew to love and the closeness I felt to God as I endured, and enjoyed, this incredible journey. You can find out more about my adventure, and other adventures, at www.ireallylived.blogspot.com
Over the past 15 years I've been passionate about languages and traveling, and my writing reflects my experiences abroad. I've visited many different countries around the world, including Spain, Brazil, Italy, China, Russia, and Morocco. This has given me the opportunity to improve my fluency in a number of foreign languages. It also lets me explore different parts of the world, meet interesting people, and learn their histories. Once all is said and done, I take these experiences and use them as inspiration for my job as a high-school foreign languages teacher and the books that I write. When I travel abroad, the last thing I want to do is stay cooped up in a hotel room. Instead, I spend my time getting to know the locals, learning the area's history, and finding those hidden culinary gems. Of course, I have favorite destinations that I visit more often, but wherever I end up, I stay for at least a month. This gives me ample time to soak up as much of the surrounding culture as I can. This is partly because of my desire and dedication to further my knowledge of far-off places, whether it's through scholarly journals or-my preference-up-close and personal. There's no better way to learn about the spirit of a place than directly from the source. I love to absorb and understand a country's history, dialects, and nuances. This is my favorite way to learn a new language! I write about these countries so I can share the knowledge I've gained abroad, as well as my appreciation for the diverse cultures of our world. I hope that my readers will discover the same passion for travel, adventure, and cultural mingling that enjoy so much! My easy-to-understand language-learning books can ignite your interest in far-off places and unlock the language barrier between us and many exciting people and places. Come along with me, as I explore the many hidden corners of the world! Best, Erica Stewart
Magisch, mystisch, meditativ - Worte werden den schönsten Innenräumen Asiens kaum gerecht. Ein vergoldetes Kloster in Tibet, eine Plantage in Sri Lanka, eine private Villa in Thailand, jeder der vorgestellten Rückzugsorte ist nicht nur in ästhetischer, sondern auch in spiritueller Hinsicht bemerkenswert. So faszinierend facettenreich sich das moderne Asien mit seinem breiten Spektrum höchst heterogener Kulturen dem westlichen Besucher präsentiert, so vielfältig zeigen sich auch die Interiors in diesem Band. Zu den Stationen dieser Entdeckungstour zählen u. a. traditionelle Pfahlhäuser in Myanmar, der atemberaubende Shiv-Niwas-Palast in Indien, den James Bond in Octopussy besuchte, kambodschanische Tempel, das berühmte Cheong Fatt Tze Mansion, ein indigoblaues Herrenhaus aus dem 19. Jahrhundert in George Town, bekannt aus dem Film Indochine mit Catherine Deneuve, und ein tropischer Garten nach Entwürfen des sri-lankischen Architekten Geoffrey Bawa, Mitbegründer des Tropical Modernism und ein Pionier des naturnahen Bauens.
Santa Fe, New Mexico, The Native Americans, U.S.A. The History and Culture, The Pueblos, Touristic Information and Guide. Santa Fe is a colorful, artistic city, bursting with a rich history and plenty of festivals that celebrate it all. With a culture based on a variety of unusual ingredients, including Gothic cathedrals, a love for the great outdoors, chile-infused cuisine and a profound emphasis on the arts, this truly is the "City Different." Santa Fe also preserves a historic feel with Spanish-influenced architecture and buildings that date back to the 16th century but one of the main reasons people visit is for its art. The works of artists like Georgia O' Keeffe, Peter Hurd, Miro Kenarov and Gustave Baumann fill the galleries, pieces that were largely inspired by the city's dramatic, vibrant and evolving landscape. Anytime you visit Santa Fe, you can find many of these renowned works along gallery-lined Canyon Road. For a taste of up-and-coming talent, swing by one of the artisan markets, check out The Railyard Arts District or stop in to see glass-blowing demonstrations at Liquid Light Glass. Santa Fe is home to several museums that celebrate its diverse art scene as well, including the Museum of International Folk Art and the Georgia O'Keeffe Museum. Another part of Santa Fe's artistic side? Its music. The Santa Fe Opera welcomes talented acts to its venue amid the mountains. The same landscapes that spoke to O'Keeffe also call to adventurous types year-round. Active travelers hike the Sangre de Cristo Mountains, test the powder skiing at one of the nearby mountains and explore the 1.6 million acres of the Santa Fe National Forest. Need a way to round out your day? Santa Fe is also a great place to taste something different: Take your pick of one of the gourmet dining establishments scattered throughout the city.
